ANDY PANDY

I graduated from College a couple of years ago and have been working in the Social Services Sector helping out the homeless populations to working with group home children. In my previous employment I lived on the facility where I worked and was available on-call 24/7 for any needs that the residents or staff might have needed. This has shown my willingness to do what is necessary to get the job done, and my flexibility. I am organized, am a team player, and understand aspects of getting things accomplished for the big picture. Also in my previous employment I helped create our employee manual, revised our communication log, and used good judgement and organizational skills while supervising nine house staff.

I still have an interest, working and helping children but would like to be able to step out of the Social Services sector for a while. I have intensive experience with children and would love to use in a family setting. I have experience with premature newborns up to pre-teens. I am not only professional and well educated, but I can also add that bit of Mary Poppins magic that kids needs to grow up with. I sign songs before I put kids to sleep, know the recipes kids can help me with, crochet blankets, can get them to eat healthy, and most importantly put a smile on their face.
