A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Cheyane I’m an early high school graduate, 17 years old, and I’m planning to go to college to study nursing. I have experience babysitting and taking care of kids, including my younger brothers and their friends in the neighborhood. I’ve enjoyed taking them to the park and playing games with them, and I never got paid because I genuinely loved doing it. Now, I’m looking for a nanny job to gain more experience working with different children, which will also help me in my future nursing career.
