Hi, My name is Tanyee, but I go by Tay! I’m 22 years old and I live in portage mi.
I have a 3 year old son named Ky’Lion, who I share a birthday with. ❤️ I’m very shy at first but when I warm up to you, you’ll absolutely love me! I’m such a sweet, silly, caring person who gained a strong love for children at a young age. Neighbors, cousins, nieces and nephews I always acted like a mini mom. My mom used to call me “mama hen.” I’ve worked at 2 licensed daycares. I’m currently in the process of getting ready to go back to school to continue in child Education. I would love to be a teacher.
I love to stay busy and do fun things. I always try and find new things to do.
