Ruth Ferguson

I worked for my older sister as a Special Needs Child Aid Support for over 2 years, caring for 3-4 children under 6 years-old with varying needs. I provided developmentally appropriate activities for children to cultivate well-being.

The hours I worked changed often depending on the need of the family but I worked fairly consistently for several hours at a time. Usually 1-3 days per week during the school year.

I also have plenty of experience babysitting with other families.

I work as a lawn mower during the summer for my neighbors.

My family runs a bookstore for our homeschool curriculum. I work mainly in the summer as a parcel packager, shelf-stocker, labeler, inventory counter, and spend most of the time filling the orders. I have been doing this for nearly 3 years and have grasped a greater understanding of business management as well as productivity.

I volunteer in my church's kids ministry, leading class activities and fostering community. I have also previously volunteered at my church's cafe, working at the register and handling money and provided volunteer work in other smaller areas and events.
