Additional Experiences/Qualifications/Preferences:
I am really looking forward to getting back into the child care field. I have long waited for the day where I am enjoying my field of work and I have found in the past that best suited me in the child care industry. I have always enjoyed being a care giver whether it is family, friend or through employment. I enjoy being around children, and watching a child grow has always been a privledge I have enoyed in life.

Corey Somerton
Corey is a past employer and whom I consider a mentor and family. He has a young daughter whom he has, and would have no problem entrusting me to care for. He would give me reference to a child care provider position or housekeeping position. He had sold his establishment of business in 2012 in which ended my position within the company.
Katie
Katie is my previous job's management, so she was my manager as well. She entrusted me to babysit her children, and am still someone she can count on for child care for her children, and she would recommend me to anyone as well.
I have looked after three kids at one time on my own ranging from 6mnths - 10 years. With the kids I usually play games, do activities, read, draw, or do constructive things. I'm not a big fan of television, but if the situation calls for it like a sick kid, or wind-down time I will allow a certain time set aside for the child to watch their favorite t.v program or movie. I sometime like going for a walk to the park or take the bus to the swimming pool, it'll all depend where the family is situated and if public transportation is accessible, and the parents will allow me to take the child(s) anywhere.
I am very clean and organized so I always clean up after messes, and make sure playing areas, kitchen and dinning room are tidy. I will do the occasional bit of laundry if the parents are behind and had ask me to that morning or day prior, as well will do light duties around the house, dishes, pick up toys, vacuum, etc.
I fortunately haven't had any mishaps, or bad experiences with babysitting. I believe if I were to ever come to a bad experience, I would be fully capable to handle most situations, for I am a calm collect person, whom is reasonable and respectful in any given situation. I have good quick judgement and reaction, and know I am entrusted in
the care and safety of a child and I take
this very serious.
