A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Olivia and I graduated this past May from the University of Minnesota. I have a degree in psychology and plan on going to grad school for Educational Psychology so I can make a positive difference in children's lives. I found my passion for working with kids at YMCA Day Camp Streefland where I started as a counselor and eventually became a Youth Advocate. I currently work with children who have learning disabilities and/or behavior problems so they can have a fun and fulfilling camp experience. I've found so much joy in what I do, and Im looking forward to working with new kids! Some other things about me are that I love anything outdoors, whether thats camping, hiking, or just laying outside! I also love animals, going for runs, and spending time with the people that I love. I'm looking forward to becoming a nanny and making a difference in your kids lives!
