I'm a happy, kind, open-minded, nature-loving person, that's me! I have experience as a babysitter, especially from taking care of my little brother from the day he was born until he turned 11. I cooked meals, picked him up from school, played with him, and helped with his homework. Many times, I also looked after him and his friends as we used to play together at the playground or enjoy sports. I love singing, playing the guitar or ukulele, and drawing beautiful nature scenes. To me, kids are wonderful little creators. I really enjoy playing with them, coming up with fun games, and watching how they express their ideas. With the experience I have, I can give parents peace of mind, knowing their children are safe, happy and free to be creative every time we are together!
