A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Adaryn and I come from a very large family of 11 kids. I am the second oldest so I have been taking care of children since I was very young. My little brother has autism and my cousin is non verbal with down syndrome so I have experience with taking care of kids with special needs.
Thank you,
Adaryn.

A little bit about me

I am 23 years old and I have been working with kids my whole life in some way. I’ve helped on a church bus since I was 10 and have been helping ever since. I love the joy and energy children bring and the happiness when they finally get that question right they’ve been struggling with. It would be my great pleasure to be there to help you and hopefully be someone your children look up too.
