A little bit about me

My name is Launa Hornsby and I am a 20 year old UNCW student majoring in Communication Studies. I work from home during the week as a pediatric scheduler and referral coordinator.
I have a husband of a little over a year and do not have any kids of my own yet.
However, I have 8 siblings so I am pretty good with kids. The last boy I baby sat was 2 years old when I first started and I baby sat him twice a week until he was 5 years old. Then I unfortunately moved.
I love to sing, dance, play and love Disney movies!
