Summary

As a committed mother of five with a profound aspiration to pursue a career working with children, I have cultivated a rich repertoire of invaluable skills over the years through the upbringing of my own children and my tenure at Pocono Services for Families and Children. My experience at this esteemed organization not only provided me with fulfillment but also honed my expertise in child care and development. Despite the closure of the company, I remain resolute in my dedication to this field. Having completed my 40-hour Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) training, I am equipped with the professional preparation necessary to engage effectively with children. I am currently seeking a long-term, permanent position where I can apply my passion and skills, fostering a positive impact while also finding personal fulfillment in my work.
