A little bit about me

I just recently graduated from Baylor University with a degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders! This fall I'll be starting my masters program for Speech Pathology at Saint Xavier University. I have always worked with children and hope to get my degree in Pediatrics. I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring new neighborhoods, reading, and just recently I have been doing clay projects! I am an outgoing, and compassionate person and my friends describe me as a "warm hug". I try to live my life with the most compassion and kindness I can give, I believe they are great virtues to have. I also have a younger sister who is nine and I genuinely try lead her by example, which has given me valuable experience and life lessons.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Asdri Rojas, I am Venezuelan and I am 41 years old. I am interested in taking care of your children. I love working with children. I have almost 5 years of experience and two strong references that can certify it. Doing outdoor activities such as walks to the park or maybe to the zoo or museums are viable for me. Inside the house, activities such as reading books, singing, dancing, creating, are hobbies that help me keep the children busy in their imagination, entertainment and learning. My initial goal is to connect so that they can be comfortable and confident.
