A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Genesis Garcia. I’m 21 years old and recently got married. I’m a bilingual speaker in both English and Spanish, and I come from a close-knit family with four siblings, one of whom has autism, which has shaped my perspective on patience and compassion. I’m a Christian and actively attend church, which plays an important role in my life.

I’ve earned my high school diploma and also completed a teaching degree through the organization of Assemblies of God. I’m passionate about working with children and hope to pursue a career as a teacher in the future, where I can make a positive impact in their lives.

Hi, I’m Shi! I’m 23 and I’ve been babysitting since 15. Being responsible for my two younger sisters is how I realized I enjoyed working with children! I’m HUGE on creative outlets so I always like to bring that out when babysitting. I adore animals and have 2 cats! I love cooking and baking so meal prep is no problem at all. I also clean! :)
