I have always enjoyed entertaining and caring for children and babies. I first began babysitting at the age of 10, and quickly became the neighborhood babysitter. From there, I spent the next 10 years babysitting for neighbors, aunts & uncles, and friends who could not afford a babysitter but desperately needed some time for themselves. As the eldest of 5 kids, I learned a sense of responsibility, patience, and resilience. This only magnified once I had a child of my own, who is now 4 months. I am passionate about learning and personal development. I spend most of my free time reading books about parenting, nutrition, natural health & beauty, cooking, and business. I enjoy cooking & baking healthy foods, writing, working out, and spending time in nature. In October I start attending university in order to obtain an MBA in Business Administration with a focus on Global Business. I Read more am presently learning to speak Spanish.
