  Hi All!  Recently I’ve been trying to get a new job, because my schedule has finally calmed down from when I had to quit my previous job! One thing that really frustrated me from when I got my first job was figuring out how the heck I was supposed to make a resume as a teenager! So I’m going to be sharing mine today with you, so hopefully you can see it! The formatting was strange lol. Please comment or contact me with any questions, and I can even send you the original pdf of my resume to edit yourself!

You can get a roll at almost any store, or if you prefer, you can buy squares of gauze, too. Add some small scissors so you can cut the gauze, and we suggest keeping it in a ziplock bag to keep it clean and organized. 4. If you’re going...

These will come out every week or so, and teach you how to be the best babysitter! Today’s subject is how to hold and pick up an infant or toddler. So here goes! (We will be using Curious George to represent the baby and toddler 😁) Holding/Picking Up An Infant: There are lots of ways to hold an infant. These include the cradle hold and the shoulder hold. The cradle hold is used for feeding an infant. The shoulder hold works well if you are walking with a baby or trying to calm a baby down. You must always remember to support the head, neck, and back of infants under six months old. Also, most infants feel safe and secure when held closer to the body.  Picking Up An Infant: Technique #1: pick up the child with your hands through the armpits and your fingers supporting the back of the neck and head.
