Hi! I'm currently a student at McHenry County College, transferring to AU in the fall to pursue a bachelor's in Social work! I am bilingual fluent in both English and Spanish. I have 5+ years of experience babysitting. I have taken care of my cousins, nieces, nephews, and family friends' children. Additionally, I was a volunteer at my church, teaching and caring for children aged 6-10 years old.In my second year at MCC, I worked as a student worker at the Children's Learning Center helping to take care of children from 18 months to 5 years old. My goal is to create a safe and fun environment for every child. I love spending time with kids and making babysitting enjoyable for everyone! I'm energetic, creative, and enjoy games, crafts, movies, and outdoor activities. I also understand the importance of structure and safety, so parents can feel comfortable knowing their children are in good hands.
