$35 per hour for 1 child

I am looking for a child care / household service job during the weekdays afternoons and weekends. I have Associate Education in Hospitality management and B.S degree in Accounting. I have experiences work for 2-3 families as a mother’s helper. I live in SSF with my husband and daughter. I’m a non-smoker, non- alcoholic person. I used to be a full time mom. I took care of my daughter since she was born until she went to 2nd grade. Through the time with my daughter, I learned how to raise a happy, loving, curious, positive, kind, and confident child. I think build a strong growth mindset at early age is very important. Building a good foundation of reading and math skills will help kids to learn better and achieve academic success in the future. I volunteered at a nursery school when my daughter attended that school. I enjoyed the time with children. I prepared meals/ snacks for them, I watched them to play in the playground, feed the rabbits / chickens. I helped them to do crafts, drawing, story time, and play game. It was a great experience for me. The earlier child development is very important as 99% of brain developed before they turning 5 years old. Good eating habits, sleeping routine, quality activities, and reading are very important for children. I love kids. I like to read books to kids, bring kids outside to play, take kids to the park, museums,or library. In my spare time, I like sleeping, hiking, reading, coloring, planting, cuddling my cats. I speak English, Chinese Mandarin, and I understand Cantonese.
