A little bit about me

Hi there! I recently transitioned out from healthcare due to some back issues and surgery; and doing that work just isn’t an option for me anymore. When I was in middle/highschool I worked for a daycare for many years, and absolutely loved my time there. I hangout at home with my puppies waiting for my niece to be born as I will then take care of her but in the meantime I’d like to do something and meet some new families! I would love to chat and meet your family to see if I’m the right fit!
