<p>Hello, My name is Chantelle. I am currently a student studying Psychology and Gender Studies at Virginia Commonwealth University. In the future I hope to become a clinical Child Psychologist. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I have two younger siblings, both boys who I was often responsible for taking care of while my parents were out and I babysat for various family friends and church families while I was growing up. From the age of 16 until I left for college I worked in my church nursery with infants and toddlers. I also worked as a sunday school teacher for 2 years with 3rd and 4th grade girls. Most recently I worked as an Activity Center Assistant Leader for Virginia Beach Parks and Recreation where I worked with children from ages 5 to 11. While working there I also had the opportunity to work with children who had various learning, social, or mental disabilities. As a babysitter I pride myself on getting to truly know the children I am working with. I believe that children are Little Adults and they have super special characteristics, feelings, and perspective that I highly value. I always learn something new when I am working with children and I always try to adapt to each child&#39;s different needs and wants. I am extremely calm and very attentive. And I always want the child and myself to have a safe, fun, interactive, educational time together. Positively impacting little lives to help motivate the future of out world is my passion and calling and I hope I can share my love for children with your family and get to know some fabulous kiddies! :D</p>
