Hi my name is Winter; I'm 30 years old, currently unemployed. I am currently not driving (yet). I first started working with children back in 2017, my very first job, as well as my first time working with children. I left my last job last year (2025) due to family emergency. I am a very compassionate, kind person. I love learning new things, I am more of a hands-on person. I consider myself to be a very hard worker, reliable, and genuine. Although these days in my career, I am looking for a different path in my life and education. I am currently looking into schools to become a medical biller and coder. My passion is to be helpful; however, I can bring the best service. And although I am more into the healthcare field, I still will always have an unwavering love for kids. To be a part of their little lives, help them to grow, to learn, and most importantly to be a part of a team that only wants the best for them.I look at the experience for me, when I have my own children one day.
