Hello, my name is Afton Collins and I am currently a student at Virginia Tech. I am majoring in Human Development with a hope of becoming a speech pathologist for children. I have been babysitting/nannying since I was 13. I had a job at a local YMCA in the child care program from 16-18. This past year I cared for a special needs child and a 9 month old. I have experience with children of all ages and with special needs children as well. I am CPR and first aid certified. Additionally, I have a car and drivers license.
