My name is Lacey Purcell. I am an optimistic, energetic 23 year-old woman and am an aspiring dancer. In the meantime, I enjoy yoga, nature, movies and most importantly, spending time with my family. I am an aunt of 17 and have been blessed with the role of teaching my little ones mannerism, morals and the importance of individuality. I also use to teach childen and teenagers at a dance studio a few years ago, which is no longer included in my resume, but has given me more experience in getting to know and take care for different personalities. Through my time spent with children, I’ve learned patience, compassion and leadership skills. If given the oppurtunity, I would love to exercise these characteristics and care for your children with the same positive outlook I have for my family. I am willing to undergo any background procedures you find necessary, as Read more well as taking any training for certifications that make you feel more comfortable for me to have as a caretaker for your children. I appreciate you taking the time to read this and hope to hear back from you. Thank you much!
