A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Natyre. Nae for short, I've been working with kids since I was 14 years old. I started working with kids in Middle school transitioning into high school. I started off working with infants and then furthermore up in age.

Caring for kids to me, is not just a job, but its a passion. Helping nurturing kids is not easy and sometime a helping hand is needed. And here's where I come in at.
I help with homework; I read to the kid(s) I assist with a little housework here and there, running small errands and or handling online grocery ordering/ pickup, and tidying up. Also, here for emotional support sometimes for the parents.
