A little bit about me
Hi my name is Krista Gordon I've been babysitting unprofessionally forever and semi professional for four years. I know recovery position CPR and to administer epi and general first aid. Professional stuff outta the way, I sing and dance, do art and have lots of energy and growing up as someone with special needs I would never turn down a child or adult because of their own special needs. I am 18 years old and when I was 10 and a half years ago my mother had gotten ill and began end of life care until I was 14 my father worked full time so a lot of the time it was just me and my mom and I have experience from taking care of her.
