Hi! My name is Tyler H, I am 18 years old. I am currently a student at Iowa Western Community College in Council Bluffs, Iowa. I grew up in small town Iowa, and I have always been around responsibilities involving kids. Starting at a young age, I would babysit my younger sisters after school while my parents were at work. I would do this almost every day up until around high school. Then practices started getting in the way, and my sisters became old enough to watch themselves. However, I continued babysitting for multiple family members and friends monthly. I worked two jobs starting my sophomore year (clerk at a gas station, and a farm hand), so I understand responsibility very well. Around this same time is when I started volunteering to teach Sunday School classes for my local church, and even got roped into leading a Sunday School program for the church in a nearby town. During summers I volunteer for my church's VBS program, where I lead the outdoor activities department. I am well known in my local town for being responsible, respectful, and kind to everyone I know. Thank you for reading! :)
