A little bit about me

I’m Jayme, 21 year old independent woman. I’m very kind hearted and easy to get a long with. I have a history of taking care of children of all ages, not necessarily as a nanny but I’ve been in foster care and have helped out in my high school daycare for years. I’m very calm and easy going with kids. Any challenge you think I’d have, I would be okay with accepting. I enjoy time outside, doing activities, projects, and I love art. I’m very spontaneous and love doing things.
