Meet Shakita

Hello, I am a 25 year old woman and I am currently pursuing a new career in Wedding Dress design. I have been a caregiver for the past 5 years to a set of now 9 y.o. twins boys. i have also cared part time for a family with three children one boy, age 7, and two girls, ages 3 and 2. They have been my only experience with children over the age of 3 however I believe that these two families have provided me with a large range of experience over the past four years. I am most comfortable with newborns, toddlers and children under the age of 7. Older children are not out of the question, they are just my less preferred age group. I do not have children of my own however, I currently own a very active and energetic two year old dog from the smaller Jack Russel breed. Her name is Read more Lilly. I love to influence more nutritious snacks and meals. I like to encourage good self decisions on health. I love to incorporate the children in food preperations for cooking. I also love to play outdoor games with children. I love swimming and arts and crafts.
