A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Donna. I have a lot of experience working with children of all ages, I have 5 children of my own from 30 years old to 17 years old. I can work with special needs as well. I graduated from Lincoln Tech as a medical assisting in 2006. I have primarily worked with the elderly professionally, but have been babysitting for many years in between for a few friends besides raising my own 5 children. I believe it is very important (especially for young children) to interact, learn, play games, and have fun while maintaining a safe environment. I'm an animal lover so pets are fine. I'm also able to assist with meal prep, driving if needed, light house duties. References available on request!
Thank you!
