A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Caroline! I am a college student studying political science, but have grown up around kids and have experience caring for kids. My mom is a first grade teacher so in addition to babysitting and childcare experience, I have spent a lot of time helping out around her classroom.

I love getting to work with kids, and being creative with them! I am a very artistic and crafty person, and no one is more artsy than young children. I played sports growing up, so always happy to spend time outside playing in whatever capacity the kids enjoy!
