Letter to the family

Hello!
My name is Chiara, and I am a student in the Untied States currently finishing up my studies at a college in Ohio. I have experience working as a paraeducator/teacher's assistant in schools, working with children ages 6-12, always making it my priority to advocate for their needs. I also have experience nannying for families with at most 2 children, between the ages of 2 and 10. My responsibilities included putting them down and waking them up for naps or bedtime, cooking meals, taking them to school, helping with chores around the house, and taking the kids on outings or doing other activities to keep them entertained!
In my free time I love to dance and read, and love combining those two passions with my love for working with kids. I just completed my university studies at Kenyon College where I studied Women's Studies and Dance. I was very involved in various departments at school, singing in our choir, doing theatre with different student and departmental groups, and I was the president of a Greek organization (like a sorority but co-ed!) that focused on service and connecting with the local surrounding community. I love to go outside and spend time either hiking in the woods, or swimming at the beach! I love to dance, I grew up doing jazz and Irish dance, and I also do theatre from time to time! I also love to read and to write, any genre!

Experience

As a teenager I frequently babysat for two families. One family was a single mother and her daughter, and the other was a mom and dad with two daughters. I had the responsibility of hanging out with the kids, taking them to and from after school activities, preparing dinner and meals for them, helping them get ready for bed and putting them to sleep, and doing basic household chores like cleaning up the kitchen, loading the dishwasher, and other basic tasks.
Last summer, I was a paraeducator at a public school. During this time, I mentored 20 first grade (7 year old) students, many of whom had learning or mobility differences. I often provided individual support to my students, ensuring that they got all of their schoolwork and other tasks completed.
My first language is American English. When I was in fifth grade (10 years old), my family moved to Genova, Liguria where I attended a public Italian school. I still speak, read, and write in Italian, although slightly less fluently than when I was 10! My mom is fluent, so I frequently converse with her in Italian. I also am a citizen of Italy, so I am able to live and work freely in the EU!
I took Spanish in elementary, middle, and high school, and still have very basic Spanish speaking, reading, and writing skills.
