A little bit about me

My name is Chelsea Roberts im 21 years old I’ve grew up in a big family, growing up I was a babysitter for many kids and many different ages some of the children were siblings but most where friends of my parents I started around 15 years old so I have 6 years of experience I guess you could say. I do have 2 children myself a 3 year old and a 8 month old both girls I’ve never heard of this website before but I’m giving it a try I’m just looking for a side hustle to help my husband with bills and rent so I figured putting my best skill to use would help wonders and not just myself not sure what else you’d like to know but your welcome to ask me anything. Thank you!
