A little bit about me

Hello,
My name is Rachel and I am a 24 year old who attends Moody Bible Institute full time. I have been babysitting and working with kids since I was 12. I babysat at least two nights a week for the same family from the time I entered sixth grade until I moved out of state for college. I have babysat for multiple families at a time with each family having at least two children. I worked at a summer camp (by far the longest, but most amazing summer job I have ever had). I have helped in Christian pre-schools and have watched friends children.

Kids are some of the most special people alive and deserve to be treated with respect. I love making up games, doing crafts and being able to assist in any way I can.

I do go to school full time, but I only have classes on Tuesday's and Thursday's. I start at 8am and go until 2:15 pm.
