A little bit about me

Im young and have no paid experience with children, however I helped to raise my cousins during the day when my family was working and have experience with children ages 1 to 9. I also spent a few summers as a counselor for children 11 and 12.
I love to work with kids and hope to make it a permanent profession later down the road, and this is the best place for me to start.
I'll do any additional home and kitchen tasks as well as taking care of the children. I did well in school and can also help with tutoring for majority of courses.
