Booked by 1 family in Loma Mar, CA

Hello! I come from a very, very large family from the Midwest. I am the second oldest of 16 grandkids so I was always the de facto babysitter. I love animals, especially my dog. I also love to read and go out into nature. I have a Bachelor’s of Science in Journalism from Ohio University and a Master’s of Arts in Communication from Arizona State University. I truly love school and learning! I would still be in school now learning something new if I could. I am willing to do whatever the kids want to do. Play in the backyard? Sure! Create a new art project for the parents? Or course! Go for a walk and look at nature? Sign me up!

She was great with our kids!
