A little bit about me

Hi! I come from a family of five kids and I was the oldest so from a young age I took care of them. I love to do activities with kids as well as help them with whatever they need. Back home I also used to babysit and nanny throughout many years of my life. One of the biggest things for me is keeping kids safe and to have fun! I will be honest, if kids are taking naps I am one who likes to tidy up the home, it is an old habit that I hope never dies. I am currently a student at Iowa State University and work as a casual employee at Northcrest Community as a Dietary Aide but, I am always willing to be flexible. I can either be a part-time nanny or a babysitter!
