Hi, My name is Jayonna. I am 21 years old. I am a Sophomore in College at Mount St. Joseph University. I am majoring in Social Work. I've been watching my younger siblings since they were born and I started babysitting for kids in my neighborhood. I have also helped out my god mom in her daycare. As well as working in a couple of Daycares. I love kids of all ages. I enjoy seeing them hit their milestones and overall watching them grow. I love to go out and do activities with them. If it’s nice outside, I like to take the kids out. However, if not we can come up with things to do inside. I love doing arts and craft. In my free time, I love hanging out with my family and friends, bowling , cooking and skating just to name a few.
