A little bit about me

My name is Jasmine and I am 19 years old. I am currently a student at Columbus State Community College and working towards a psychology AA degree. My childcare experience is not as extensive as I would like, however I have many young family members I’ve had to care for. For instance, my nephew was born in 2015 and I have been caring for him on weekends when he comes over to my home. I look forward to expanding my experience with a family on this site.
