Meet Shelby

I come from a large family of nine children. I am the second oldest, and enjoy growing with kids. I've always had a passion for early childhood and education. I started off working with kids by helping my mother raise my sibling, then from there my passion grew. I picked up babysitting shortly after I turned 13. My responsibility for the children i took care of involved cooking, cleaning, reading, homework, exercising, music , and arts and crafts. In addition, i worked in head start as an assistant during the school hours. There, I also preformed the same duties involving babysitting. children are our future leaders, and it is rewarding to be able to help pursue their dreams!
