Hi there! I'm Krystal. I currently work at an Elementary School as a teacher assistant, will be going back to school in the spring to get my art teaching degree. When I am not working, i am spending time with my family and painting. I have been caring for children for 6 years as a babysitter and as the oldest of 3 siblings. I have a lot of experience working with toddlers, and I also spent three years volunteering for a youth football team. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I see get to help grow and teach. Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to mentor and remembering all the fun times we had together! I can provide references upon request. I'd love to meet you and get to know your children.
