Hello! I’m 19 years old, studying Business. I love children and they love me! I would say I’m my best with children under or around age 5.

I’m looking to leave my current job at Chipotle very soon, yet still in need of a way to help with school expenses. I’m looking forward to finding a nice family with great kids that I could build new relationships with!
