I'd describe my personality as outgoing, self motivated, kind.
I like working with kids because I enjoy helping out and being around them when they are younger and having fun.
In my spare time, I like to go fishing, shopping, and playing outside.
I have been babysitting for about 3 years now. I have cared for all ages and am not afraid of pets! I love being outside, doing crafts, and caring for whatever the child/children need! I am very excited about the opportunity to care for your child.
