A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Ashley Arce. I am 21 years old. I consider myself having great patience with children. I myself am a sister of two younger brothers (ages 3 and 15) and I love watching over them and taking care of them always. I enjoy taking care of babies and kids in general. I have a lot of experience watching over my little cousins, my mom’s friends’ children and my own brothers for years, but I want a chance to work professionally in what I’ve done almost all my life.
