Growing up, I had foster siblings that were always younger than me and usually babies are toddlers so I was always helping out with them. In high school I got a job at a daycare and worked there for about a year before I took a gap year. I worked in the baby room and loved it! Then when I came back from my gap year, I got a job nanny a three month old up until she was 2 years old. I love spending time with kids and supporting their development!
