Sitter in Smithdale, Mississippi

Hello to anyone that is kind enough to read this! I’m Brenna, I’m 22, I was a dance instructor all throughout highschool, primarily working with children 3-10, but worked both with older and younger kids. I would love to with kids again now that I’ve graduated college, and hope you will give me that opportunity. I was a dance instructor for many years, guiding children through movement based learning and hands on activities. We would routinely work on counting, reading, both fine and gross motor skills, and memory skills. Nurturing minds with music and active movement, keeping them engaged and safe throughout the day. Many children also were either homeschooled or brought in homework, where I would assist them if needed with subjects such as reading, science, English, history, and basic math. Some activities I enjoy doing with kids include, nature walks, hikes, and outdoor play. Hands on play such as cooking, arts and crafts, and anything to promote creativity and self expression. Movement play like dancing, sports, and playground visits. Learning based play, reading stories, gardening, and museum trips. I’m great with pets, ranging from typical dogs and cats, or your not so typical snakes and rats as an example. So any fur or non-furred babies, along with your actual babies, shouldn't be an issue. I'm willing to get CPR and/or First Aid certified if needed, and have my own car and driver’s license. I have experience working special needs, I was considered a "special buddy" for any child with special needs that needed extra help. This ranged from children with autism, ADHD, downs syndrome, and more. I was there to help redirect, regulate, insure safety, and help prevent meltdowns or overstimulation.
