  About Me
 
I have always had a love for children. Ever since I myself was a child I have always known that I wanted to work in a field that involves children. This is why a job just as babysitting, being a nanny, or helping a mother is perfect for me as I love to interact with children and help them learn and experience new and beneficial things. One thing I believe in very strongly is being a role model for living a healthy lifestyle; I have always been very active by joining swim teams, gymnastic teams, dance classes, and many other sports. I feel as though this is the most beneficial action you can take to teach kids how to live a truly fun, exciting, healthy, and long life. I also believe in being open to new ideas and experiences and not only give the children the opportunity to learn from yourself but also to allow yourself to learn from the children; something I find happens so much more than one would think!
I have had much experience with working with children and I feel as though I am very well suited, capable, and trustworthy of a position to do with babysitting, being a nanny, or helping a mother.
