I am a Drake Law School student with a passion for childcare. I have been caring for children for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a street where I was the oldest kid, so I was the neighborhood babysitter. This has continued into my teenage years, as I have been employed at the YMCA for over 3 years doing both the summer camp program and aftercare during the school year. I have experience with newborns to teenagers, and I am first aid and CPR certified. I am well-versed in managing multiple kids (and multiple ages) at once. I pride myself on my ability to cook, help with homework, create (clean up), and play with all types of kids :)
