About me

I grew up in Brooklyn, New York with my parents, twin sister and younger sister. I also have 2 brothers, 5 and 14 years old on my dad's side. As a child, my twin was my best friend and we used to make our own dances and singing together.
   
In the summer of 2018 I graduated from Kingsborough Community College with an associates degree in Mental Health and Human Services. I'm currently pursuing my Bachelor's Degree at New York City College of Technology and have been working in the human services field by assisting differently abled individuals. I believe working in the special needs field helps me to be the best child care provider I can be. It teaches me patience, understanding, and meeting the needs of whomever is in my care.
   
Aside from caring for my siblings, I've had multiple jobs caring for babies of family and friends. I have experience with changing diapers, baths, feeding, and engaging with an infant child. One of the infants I cared for turned 3 years old this year; I still babysit for her occasionally and we have such a great bond. She loves reading, singing, and dancing. I have experience tutoring children from the ages of 11 to 14 years old. I have cared for a 9-year-old girl who has autism, and a 7-year-old with Downs Syndrome. I always make sure I know what they like to do. Their happiness, comfort, and safety is my top priority.
   
My passion is helping people be the best they can be. I chose Human Services as my field of study because I love coming up with goals and seeing them accomplished. When working with children, not only am I teaching and caring for them, but they teach and inspire me so much.
