I began babysitting at a young age for my parent's colleagues at UB. I babysat 3 kids when they would get home from school for a year. I provided us with holiday activities and we would bake cookies and make dinner and I'd help them with their homework. My brother has two daughters, 2 and 5, who I have watched since birth when they need a babysitter. Tasks including but not limited to; feeding, changing diapers, wearing them in a baby carrier, pushing in stroller, putting them and and taking them out of carseats, etc... I have finished a bachelors in English and African American Studies at the University at Buffalo and furthering my degree in English and Education with interdepartmental Gender and Ethnic Studies. I have a passion for teaching and reading.
