A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Shanya—I'm a student at Western Kentucky University here in Bowling Green. While I haven’t had any paid childcare jobs yet, I’ve helped take care of my younger siblings (they’re 7 and 15 now) for years while my mom was at work. I’ve always enjoyed being around kids and love helping out however I can. I’m patient, dependable, and try to bring a calm, positive energy when I’m working. I do have a part-time job as well, so my schedule is a little limited, but I’d be happy to work with you to find something that fits!
