A little bit about me

25 years old and Pre-Covid I was an assistant teacher at Bright Eyes Early Learning Center for almost two years. Which is where I got my CPR/First Aid certification for adults, kids, and babies.

I’ve been babysitting/Nannying for 8+ years now and I have a lot of experience. I work with every age group including infants and toddlers.

I’m no stranger to doing arts and crafts with kids or making them snacks. We also potty train at my job so I can do that as well!
