I will complete an Associate's Degree in Early Childhood Development from Northern Virginia Community College, Alexandria in 15 May 2016. I am certified in both CPR and First Aid. Keeping children happy and safe is my number one priority. I keep them under a watchful eye and always make certain they avoid dangerous situations. I am good at helping them follow rules and encourage them to clean up after themselves while I help them do so. I prepare good-tasting meals for children and take into account all dietary requests and requirements. I make certain children follow set schedules and take naps so they are well-rested. If allowed by the family, I schedule fun outings to parks, gardens, zoos and museums so the children can see their community and all it has to offer them. I have enclosed my resume, copies of my certifications and my references and hope to hear from you soon.
