Here is a list of stuff to get to know me a little better: A bit about me and my past history with kids: I am a responsible, honest, and loyal gal with spunk and love for children! I am currently a travel agent and am a bit obsessed with seeing everything the world has to offer! My hobbies include drawing, reading, scrap-booking, biking, hiking and well pretty much anything outdoors. I love to cook and travel! I have worked with children quite a bit since I was about 9 years old. I started watching my young cousins to start then moved to two wonderful young girls Jamie and Casey who I watched throughout their youth (Jamie just graduated university and I just attended Casey's wedding)! I then watched four other children most weekends Kaleigh, Trey, Morgan and Maddie until that family moved to Dallas. Then the summers after my Read more junior and senior years of high school I watched four children all summer long from 7:00am till 6:00pm, Jamie, Casey, Chris and Amanda. Also my summer of senior year every other night from 8:00pm till 8:00am the next morning i took care of an 8 year old boy Ryan. At 19 years old I moved into to my best friends house to nanny for a year for her son. I then decided I wanted to try something a bit different and went over to Germany to Au Pair for two families! One family in Hamburg and another in Nuremberg. The family in Hamburg had two children age 3 and 5, absolutely lovely children and then the family in Nuremberg was an 8 month old and a 20 month old. They were such cuties! Once I returned home, I worked an early morning job and then every afternoon on Monday - Friday 3pm to 5:30pm I went and picked two children up from school and took care of them until their parents got off from work! I then relocated to Los Angeles where I worked with multiple families babysitting and 1 family as a full time nanny. After 4 months with the family they needed to relocate for work to Rio de Janeiro and invited me along. They extended their contract and decided to stay in Rio and I returned to my home town here in San Antonio. I love working with children and being able to help them grow into amazing adults! If there's anything else you'd like just let me know, I'm an open book :)
