A little bit about me

Hello! I’m an outgoing, down to earth, detail oriented child & pet lover! I began tutoring at the age of 15 for my local elementary school through a program called “Y learning” and found that my passion lies in working with children. I majored in Biology & work as a part time tutor currently. I was let go from my full time nanny job at the beginning of the pandemic & am now looking to spend more time caring for children again. Hopefully I can help a local family find the help they’ve been looking for. I currently have an open availability.
