A little bit about me

I started off caring for children at my local church, Believers Church in Matteson. I cared for the toddlers 2-3 during service. I've also done some neighborhood babysitting at a young age. I’ve cared for 2 families off of care.com so far, as well as babysitting for family members children from new borns to 6 years old. During my time in college I did Pet sitting for two small dogs.

At the age of 15 I started my own magazine called Ustyleu where I worked with kids and young adults to create a magazine as well as put on a big empowerment tour for them.
