A little bit about me

Hey! My name is Emily Tompkins. I am graduating from John Bapst memorial this year and starting college at UMaine next year for biochemistry. I understand that knowing I am just now graduating from high school can be scary because I'm younger, but I can tell you more about me to make you feel more comfortable. For starters I grew up in a happy house with younger siblings. I help out with two four year olds and an eight year old most of the day to help my mom. I have experience with young children, and older children. I can help with homework, meal prep, and overall give your children a fun experience. I will work with animals. I absolutely love all animals. At home we have two dogs, a cat, a bearded dragon, and twenty three chickens. I hope that knowing a little bit more about me helped to influence your decision!
