  About Me
 
My name is Summer and I am looking for work in northern New Jersey and/or New York City. I just completed my freshman year of college at Rutgers University, New Brunswick as a member of the School of Arts and Sciences Honors Program, but am looking to work full-time for the time being until I can afford to go back to school. I have lived in the same area for most of my life but have moved around as my parents divorced and remarried. I have four younger brothers from my parents' numerous marriages, and so I have spent much of my teenage years caring for kids of all ages. I am younger than many other nannies/childcare workers, but I see this as an advantage because of my ability to relate to children.

My biggest hobbies include traveling and volunteering, and I have spent a few Summers traveling abroad with the non-profit organization Free the Children. I am always open to traveling as needed with families, and I have a special desire to help care for others, and so childcare has quickly become a passion of mine. I hope I get the chance to prove this to you.

  Work Experience & Education Background
 
4 years experience, 2 references
As a high school student, I was a teacher's aid in a preschool program for children between the ages of three and five. I have also babysat extensively and consistently for a number of families with children between the ages of one and twelve, where my responsibilities ranged from simply putting the children to bed to preparing their meals, bathing them, taking them to school and extracurriculars, etc. As a senior in high school, I tutored extensively (about five times a week) for children in elementary school, middle school, and high school.

While I do not have experience as a full-time nanny, I believe my responsibilities as a babysitter, preschool teacher, tutor, and even as an older sister have shaped me into someone who is more than ready for this type of employment. I love working with children and I have the ability to create a fun, caring, and suitable environment for all ages. 
 
 
Childcare experience within the following age groups:
1 - 2 years, 2 - 5 years, 5 - 10 years, over 10 years of age, twins, triplets  
Education/Training:
High School, Graduated High School or Equivalent 
I graduated high school in June of 2015 with a 4.3 GPA and Honors recognition. I am now enrolled in Rutgers University at New Brunswick, where I am a part of the School of Arts and Sciences Honors Program.
