A little bit about me
Hi there! I am a 21-year-old recent graduate from the University of Minnesota with a B.A. in Political Science. I am the oldest of all of my siblings and cousins so I have had over 10 years of experience taking care of children of all ages, but I also have 5+ years of experience taking care of children outside of my family. I hope to nurture your children's creativity and kindness because it is especially important for their developing minds. Please message me on here or email me at [email hidden] with any further questions or to see my resume!

A little bit about me
Hi! I have worked with children on and off for the past 11 years. I have experience as a dance instructor, lead assistant in the disability learning center, a trainee for the IMPACT program at OSU, and a gym daycare manger. I have spent the last year working with older adults in a neurology physical therapy clinic. This time has strengthen my skills in multitasking, caregiving, problem solving, and odd jobs to assist in any way necessary. I especially enjoy working and developing relationships with people. I am a Disney loving person through and through and I bring this attitude to the way I develop relationships and my work ethic. I am an energetic, loving, confident, and organized worker. I am looking forward to the chance to work with children again and help develop the next generation!
