Sitter in Essex Junction, Vermont

I love working and spending time with kids. I genuinely enjoy getting to know their likes/dislikes, personality and quirks. I am soft spoken, but assertive when needed. I find myself being very good at mediating situations, atin several instances between grown adults acting like children. I love to cook and come up with creative projects, help with homework and get outside and play. I have a squeaky clean driving record and a high level of insurance. Besides babysitting as a young teen and working as a camp counselor as an older teen. I have worked as a peer counselor for kids 12-18 in a Burlington group home. Most recently I worked as a caregiver for the elderly and disabled for the Visiting Nurses for the first two years, then as a brain injury rehab aid so I have a lot of patience, nor do I loose my temper. I have a squeaky clean background check as well. To be upfront I am on disability, but am legally allowed to work part time and have. I do take medication, but not the kind that would alter my mental status. Besides a limp, you would not notice a difference. I drive a 2012, safe and well maintained Honda Fit. References available upon request, although the summer camp has been closed and defunct for years now, and neighbors have moved away. I do however have references for other jobs that demonstrate my job skills. Thanks for taking the time to read. I have, but am very willing to take a refresher course in CPR and first aid. That's the last thing, that if god forbid an emergency did happen, not freaking out, focusing on what needs to be done talking to and keeping people calm are skills that my VNA supervisors have commented on.
