A little bit about me

Hello! I Mary, currently live in Lexington, Kentucky. I am a student at the University of Kentucky, taking a gap semester. I am very interested in Nanning. Although I may not have paid experience in childcare, I have plenty of experience with children. I am one of nine siblings, my youngest three being 10 and twelve. I also was the Sunday school teacher for all children in the 5th grade and under, every Sunday and Wednesday from thirteen years old until I was eighteen. I love to clean, truly. I also have no issues with animals, as I worked at an animal rehab facility all through high school, dealing with all species under the sun. There, I was also a summer camp counselor, educating children on Kentucky wildlife. Currently, I am enrolled in CPR certification courses as well as first aid. I am also sober, I do not partake in any form of substance use. I am now twenty-one years old, trying to find a job that is just as rewarding as it is fun.
