A little bit about me

Hi! I am currently a junior at the University of Tennessee and also am a Young Life leader! A big part of who I am is my faith so that is something that I always hope to reflect onto others. A goal of mine is that every child knows the love that the Lord has for them so know if I nanny your kids then I will try my best to reflect the Lords kindness onto them. I have a now seven year old niece that I have babysat since the day she was born! During covid, I moved in with my sister to help take care of her while she was at work. She was around 2 at the time so I got to dive into potty training and developing her vocabulary with her. She has made me fall in love with being around children and ever since then I’ve always wanted for that to be my job. If you have anymore questions please reach out!
