Mistura $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a new sophomore in college who has always enjoyed working with children. As the oldest of three siblings, I’ve spent many years helping care for and support my younger brothers and sisters, which has taught me patience, reliability, and strong communication skills. I also was a mentor in high school and a camp counselor. I understand the importance of creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children, and I take pride in being someone parents can trust with their family’s care.

For 2 of those years, I've worked as a therapeutic behavior aide, working with kids who have special needs and, or behavior issues.
