A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Natalie, I’m 18 years old and I really enjoy working with kids. As the second oldest sibling, I grew up helping care for my younger siblings, so I’m very comfortable with kids of all ages, from newborns to teens. While I don’t have formal professional childcare experience yet, I do have plenty of hands on experience.

I’ve previously worked in fast food and currently work part time in retail. I’m also a 2025 high school graduate. In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors, spending time with family, and staying active.
