I have a natural connection with kids and seniors. To me, I need to be able to put a smile on someone's face and be a person to whom they can trust and confide in. When I go into a job like this, I start trying to build friendships rather than come off as strictly an athority figure. The friendships that I make are priceless and those are the things I live for. My child care style is fun. I like to do activities and play games and be creative. In my experience kids are never "bad" they're just bored or simply not getting enough attention.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Smoker but will abstain when with children  Comfortable with pets:   Languages spoken: English, "functional" spainish    My Nationality: American  Background Check:   Eligible to work in the U.S.:   Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice:         Work Experience & Education Background   4 years experience, 2 references For the past year and 6 months I have been providing care for my 1 grandfather with alzheimers and the other with limited mobility until they passed away.
