Hello, my name is Zakiya, and I am 25 years old. Although I come from a military family, I spent most of my life growing up in Springfield, IL. During the school year I work as a preschool teacher, and I am in school studying for my bachelors in elementary education. Along with caring for children, my passions include art and music. I am very responsible and reliable. I am CPR and first aid certified, as well as have a CDA certification. I also have experience working with children with special needs.
