I am patient, kind, and have a passion for learning and caring for others. I grew up as the oldest sister to three little siblings along with many pets. Although I do not have professional experience in childcare and pet care, I grew up babysitting and caring for not only my sibling and pets, but also for many other families children and animals. I am no stranger to diaper changes, nap time, preparing food for a variety of ages, crafts and play time, along with all the other aspects of caring for kids.
