Hello, my name is Kirsten I recently quit my job. I was a medical assistant and phlebotomist for 6yrs with a supervisor position. Unfortunately our company was merging and I no londer wanted to pursue that career. I've baby sat since the age of 13 from neighborhood children to niece's and nephews along with friends kids, aging from the rang of 6mos to 12yrs old. I know everyone says this but i honestly love working with kids unfortunately I cant have my own. So i treat every child very special. I love helping others and taking care of those who can't help themselves. I love kids and it's always been a huge passion of mine even when I was younger!
