Early Education

I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old. I currently work at Texas Roadhouse but am looking for more of a steady schedule and working with kids during the summer since it is more like teaching! Teaching is my passion and being a mom is my biggest aspiration so being a caregiver seems right in between!!!
