I love kids and pets and here to help

Hello, My name is Deanne and I live in Leavenworth KS, I am 21yrs old and I love pets and kids alike!!

My experience with children starts with being the oldest of 8 children as well as nannying/ babysitting for families and friends when they need it. I also have been serving and volunteering in my church's nursery and kid hallway since I was 12! I also have experience with pets since I grew up with dogs and cats all of my life but recently I have dove into the realm of poultry/waterfowl so that's a bonus! I also have worked in a doggy daycare for a couple years so I know the difference in right and wrong behaviors/actions and I love going on walks with pets

One of my hobbies is cooking so I can cook as much food for a meal or as little for a snack! I love being outside and talking walks and doing park runs, I am not that brilliant when it comes to crafts but I can come up with some ideas to help entertain your littles
