Grew Up In East Peoria Illinois, And Currently Going Into My Senior Year Of High School.
I love working with and meeting new dogs and animals!! I grew up around all different kinds of animals (dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, etc), and I have a couple fur babies of my own.
I am looking to supplement to replace my income. I have been in school social work for 16 years and would like to focus my skills on a smaller group of children. I would prefer to watch children in my own home as I have an infant of my own. Kids love me and I teach them to be their best selves no matter what age.
