About Ximena

My name is Ximena, although I like my nickname Mena more, and I am 19 years old. Here is some backstory on why I think I am a good fit for these roles. I was lucky enough to be adopted at a young age by a foster mother, and my childhood household has seen around 40 children come and go. Kids with disabilities, health issues, allergies, infants, toddlers, kids up to 10 years old. I watched and learned from my mother as she cared for them, and know the importance of a present caretaker. When I got to the age of 13, my mother started paying me to babysit my two younger siblings, 2 dogs, 4 cats, and 8 chickens. I love children and pets, they bring me such joy to be around. I hope to one day be a long term nanny or work in a daycare or as a teacher!
