A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Zyanne, I'm 22 years old. I've always had a love for children. As a teenager, I began babysitting the children in my neighborhood for extra money. This started off as just a job but I quickly grew to love the children I cared for and looked forward to the days when they were in my care. I went on to get my certification for babysitting.

Going into highschool, I began working in the nursery at my church which quickly led into me becoming the primary caregiver for the nursery. I gained experience working with a fairly large group of children at a time while still giving each child the acute care that they need. Children bought so much joy to my life in those days, I can't wait to have the opportunity to work with them again.
