A little bit about me

I love working with kids! I have a 7 year old son and take care of my 3 little brothers. I have worked as a nanny in high school and worked at a daycare facility in the past. For the past 2 years I have been a caregiver for my father who was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. I am looking to help a family that needs help when my son is in school. Anytime between 9:30am to 2:30pm I am available to help give you a break! I know taking care of children is a full time job and sometimes we just need a break or a helping hand.
