A little bit about me

Hi my name is Aaliyah Ortega.

I work as a cook so i have a lot of experience with cooking so say if the kids need a meal like lunch or dinner it would be no problem.

I have taken care of children with autism and down syndrome, so I have a lot experience with that.

The reason why I put no on having a vehicle, is because I share it with my partner, and he works 21 mins away.

I love taking care of kids and i remembered that when i went back home for Christmas. So please give me the opportunity to take care of your child or children!

sincerely, Aaliyah O.
