Summary
I bring a high level of energy and enthusiasm to everything I do and love interacting and engaging with kids. For the past four summers, I have been working as a camp counselor at WOW Camp. From an early age, I have always loved being active and playing sports – soccer, futsal, basketball and softball and I have a passion for baking/cooking and sharing my creations with friends and family. Playing ECNL soccer, which is the highest level to compete in in Oregon, as a goalkeeper, I have learned how to work in stressful situations while collaborating with others with a sense of positive leadership and teamwork. I am a positive and cheerful daycare provider with 8 years experience in childcare and babysitting. Excited to offer child-appropriate activities involving art, music and dance. Excels in working with children displaying behavioral or developmental issues.
