About Kurstin

Experience: 7 yrs

I have taken care of babies around 6 months and children before, as well as kids all the way to the age of 13. I have two younger siblings, a sister and a brother. When I was about 11 years of age, I had to start watching them, my sister was about 9 and my brother was about 6 years old at that time. But even before that, I remember changing my little brothers diapers and feed him frequently, and also watched over him and put him to sleep. When I was about 14, I started watching them more and also I started watching the little kids ages 3-7 at my families church. I played with kids, let them pretend cook, in the little kitchen they had in the daycare center and let them serve me, I also was assigned to give them hourly snacks and meals, and also take them to restroom if needed and watch them if they wanted to play outside. My cousin just had a baby a little over a year ago and I have babysat for her when she was at work, changing diapers, putting her down for naps, feeding her and watching her while she played with toys. I also have experience with special needs kids, the school that I attend we have a life-skills program for special needs kids and every month one of the classes I am, we put on a luncheon for them. Also, I enforced all rules that I was told to with any kids if said too.

March14, 2014 To Whom It May Concern: I am writing this letter on behalf of Kurstin, a student in my visual art class. In the past two years that I have worked with Kurstin, it has been an honor to witness and aid her growth and development into the amazing young lady that she has become. Kurstin has consistently demonstrated a positive work ethic in my Introduction to Painting class this semester. She has challenged herself appropriately and has been one of my best self-advocating students. Aside from her performance in my visual art class, I have witnessed her amazing work in my Renaissance class. Kurstin is one of few students chosen to be part of this group of students focused on improving the climate and culture of Tumwater High School. She has continually exhibited kindness and compassion, and through her participation in Renaissance as well as her clear morals and values, she has become a role model for our underclassmen. She has played an integral role in many fundraising events, school-wide activities, and community service opportunities and has proved herself an asset to this organization. In closing, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Kurstin over the last couple years. She is a bright, dedicated, and ambitious young lady who will without doubt achieve whatever she puts her mind to. Thank you for your consideration and please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Sincerely, Joey Powers
