Hello! My name is Akala Sherwood, I have worked in childcare for 10 years with every age group. I absolutely love working with children and believe there is no better thing on earth than when a childs face lights up because they accomplished something new. I babysit outside of childcare and have reliable references. I am comfortable with pets, I have a husky mix myself. I am also a single mother of an amazing 9 year old and a 1 year old, the baby will have to come with me. I am extremely reliable and have reliable transportation.
