I am a college student (majoring in elementary education). I have a really strong passion for kids, which explains my major. I have 4 years of experience working with infants-toddlers. you can add a few extra years if we’re considering the experience I have with my younger siblings, lol. Most importantly, I enjoy being around kids. I enjoy answering their random questions, listening to their stories, playing games with them & so much more. If you are wondering, I do have a certificate in CPR/First Aid. No worries. I am very great with kids. In my opinion, kids make the world a better place!
