Hi there! My name's Lucia and I'm a DMV native. I used to work in Childcare at Arlington Forest United Methodist Church, and nannied throughout college. My biggest life hack is when you need a kid to come over to you and they don't want to, either pretend like you're leaving without them or ask them for a high five.
