I love working with children; their inquisitive attitudes and loads of energy make them a joy to be around. I am responsible and dependable, but also fun and energetic. I am currently the oldest of eight brothers and sisters, so I have grown up around children and I have practically raised them. I have experience, and I am comfortable with newborns to young teens; my specialty is toddlers to age six. I was also involved in childcare at my local church, specializing in ages 2-5-year-old kids. With me, your children will have fun, playing and learning rather than just sitting in front of a TV, computer, or phone. In addition, I love the outdoors so we will also be doing a lot of outdoor activities rather than just indoor ones. I am also pet friendly. My hobbies include sports, reading, playing guitar, and baking.
