Hello! I am currently a freshman at Illinois State University. Over the summers, I have babysat kids and found a joy in doing it. I love spending time with children, as I always watch my nieces and nephews too. I would say I am outgoing and have a bubbly personality, I also love dog watching! I'm willing to do any activity and hope that every kid is having fun in a safe way.
