I have been working with and taking care of animals for years, and pick up watching any critters when it fits in a full time schedule. Very attentive, detail oriented and reliable. Organized and orderly, able to adapt to your system and keep up with the house or farm.

Being a father I have had many years of experience watching children. I have worked the last 4 years as a substitute teacher and intervention assistant, where I have taught in elementary, middle and high schools. I volunteered as a chaperone for a band camp over 2 summers while my son was in school, as well as various youth groups. Being a substitute, I have an active background check conducted most recently in early 2023.

Booked by 1 family in Waldo, OH

I have worked as a classroom assistant for childcare center from 2[removed]. I helped teachers supervise children during play, implement lessons, and help during bathroom/diapering. I worked with ages 6 weeks to 6 years-old. I have a BA in Psychology and also hold a MSW and was a child and family therapist for 10 years. Currently, I am transitioning to focus on writing and music career, and would like part time work to support myself. I'm flexible, independent, and fun. I believe in making children feel safe above all things. I love music, art, dance, and games and share those activities with children. I am dancer with education and teaching experience in ballet, tap, jazz, modern, and musical theater. I have play piano and bass currently.

It’s our first time working with Angelique. So far our 1 and 2 year old didn’t fuss. They played with her and did not cry
