I like working with kids because it's incredibly fun; I hardly consider it a job!
I started working with kids as a mother's helper when I was 10 years old, then I progressed from occasional gigs to becoming a summer nanny.
In my spare time, I like to read, play piano, watch movies, and take walks outside.
