A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Erynn Noel. I have lived in beautiful sunny California three year so far and absolutely love it. Before moving here I lived in North Carolina and for 10+ years I’ve helped my grandmother with her in-home daycare working with ages ranging from newborn to 10+ years of age. I absolutely love working with children. It is a passion of mine and I am grateful to have been able to have done jobs in the past such as camp counseling, babysitting and working at a daycare. I have experience working as an English teacher as well in South Korea and although I’m not fluent in language yet, I’m still learning. If you have any further questions I would love to answer and can’t wait to hear back from you.
