I love kids and I always have. One of my first words when I was a toddler was “baby”! Their imaginations are so inspiring to me and I love to see their faces light up when talking about something they love. I play piano and guitar and I love to be creative and make crafts as well. I love to cook and bake and to be outside in nature. My favorite age group to take care of is babies, around 6-14 months. I hope to connect with kids and parents alike and earn some money doing what I love!
