A little bit about me

Hello!!! My name is Tashawnda but I prefer to be called Shawn. ( it makes it easier for everyone). I have 8 children, 3 of which I birthed and the other 5 are bonus children. I have a 19 year old daughter, a 13 year old daughter and a 4 year old autistic non verbal son. I currently work in the health field and have been doing so since I was 16 years old. I love being around children because they make your rainy days turn into sunshine. I love helping others and doing anything I can to make someone’s day go better. I learned this mother thing without any support and so I’d like to be that support someone else can count on to help them move about their day better. I’m. It proud of some of the decisions I’ve made in my past but would love the opportunity to explain my side so that I have a fair chance in obtaining a job.
