Hi, my name is Claudine but you can call me Deen. I graduated in May, got my bachelor in visual communications and graphic design in New York. Now I’m doing my internship at Walt Disney World in Food & Beverage and Merchandise Photography. I love Photography and anything related to art. I love cooking and watching movies( movie theaters, art galleries and museums are my favorite places). While I’mdoing my internship I would love to babysit in my free time because I enjoy spending time with children, have fun and doing creative activities with them. I used to babysit my friend’s children and family members’ in New York, and I miss it. I volunteer at Give Kids the World Village in Kissimmee in my free time, but I also want to go back to babysitting. I’m available during the evening and the weekend.
