A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Anna and I am currently a senior at Webster Groves high-school. A little about me - I play soccer and love outdoor activities. Whether that's a walk or playing different sports. I plan on going to Mizzou next year with a major in pre-nursing. I have experience babysitting younger children from ages 2-10, but of course would always be open to nannying younger or older ages. I have experience working (unpaid) in the preschool at Webster Groves High-school. This consisted of creating and teaching lesson plans to preschoolers and hanging out with them for roughly an hour to two hours of my day.
