A little bit about me

Hello!!! I am an early education student at kent state that is looking for some different experience working with children. I have worked in daycares since 2023 but recently switched to a retail job due to certain circumstances. Yet I miss caring for children and would like a change of scenery. I have always been around and helping with younger children from work, sports, volunteering and more recently new family members. I hope I can provide a safe space for your children to grow while they are in my care.
