I have cared for children my whole life. I have two younger sisters. I babysat at a young age. I've worked with children with developmental and cognitive delays. I know some ASL and a little Spanish. I am a fast hands on learner! While at the elementary school I have seen the progress children make and it is mind blowing. That's why I keep going back year after year! I am detail oriented, neat, empathetic and fun! I enjoy being outside and I love dogs! I would be happy to help with household tasks, food prep, child transportation etc. I look forward to hearing from you!
