A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Aileen Balcazar, I'm 19 years old and was born and raised in Chicago, IL. I am currently attending a university in Washington, D.C. to further my education in the Biology field, But I am home for the summer looking for a job. I am partially hearing impaired so I do wear hearing aids and speak fluent in American Sign Language. If that's something you would want your kids to know, I would be more than happy to teach them some ASL. In high school I was on the Honor Roll, and the Deans List for high honors and perfect attendance. I play softball for my University and I love to be active outdoors, I love to be hands on rather than sitting on our bums all day. I'm 100% okay with doing housekeeping, dishes, laundry etc. I have always loved kids, and worked at a preschool as a Teacher Aid, besides my aunt who was the teacher for that classroom. I would love to have a face to face introduction as that would allow both of us to feel more comfortable learning about each other!
