At 14 years old, I discovered my love for kids. I started to babysit my newborn nephew who's now 10 years old. I also helped raised my like sister and little brother. I'm a family orientated person and get along so well because I'm a kid at heart myself. Professional, I've worked with infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school age children. In addition, I've worked with preschoolers through high school that special needs. I believe I have a lot of patient and energy to keep up with any child. In 2012 I graduated with my Associate's degree in childhood education and in 2015 I graduated with my Bachelor's in psychology. Even though I have a Bachelor's, I still want to further my education in special education. On top of my educational background I also cook,clean, read, and truly engage with a child. My pet peeve is seeing a child on a Read more electronic device. Although that's what this generation is coming too, I'm always looking for ways to truly have fun.
