I have taken care of children since I was a pre-teen. I worked at my aunt’s childcare center changing diapers, preparing lunch and snacks and playing with children from the ages of 9-13. In high school, I babysat and was a basketball camp counselor.. In undergrad, I was a tutor for the student athletes at my college Texas A&M. During my summer breaks, I worked with families taking care of kids in Baton Rouge. Before entering grad school, I was an academic shadow for a child at the Louisiana School for the Deaf. I also carer for a 5th grader at St.Luke’s with muscular dystrophy and drove her to physical therapy and her tutor after school. I also babysat locally and volunteered at an LSU camp for children with adhd and autism where I was the art counselor. Once in grad school, I was a tutor for the athletes at LSU, and had an internship at Early Head Start where I worked with the babies in the nursery and the teenage moms. I have been a personal nanny for infants and a sitter for children of all ages for various families while also working part time contract jobs in the field of social work since 2012.
