I've worked with children pretty much my whole life as I am an older sister to two gorgeous gals. I am also a 4 times auntie and God mother and was a Resident Advisor at college where I studied illustration, painting, and social justice. Last year I worked at a summer dance camp as a counselor for ages 5 to 10. Which was an incredible experience for me. I love parks and games and children's books. Family and love are the most important things to me. My other interests are in nutrition, holistic health care, and yoga. After I graduated from College I spent 4 months in India studying yoga and sanskrit. On returning I moved to Santa Cruz where I found work as a farm-hand, nanny, and pet-sitter. I recently moved to Oakland with my boyfriend who is an artist and works in the City. I'd be blessed to Read more spend time with your family and help out as I can.
