I grew up with a younger brother who is two years younger, and have recently spent the last 3 years living with my Aunt and her two younger kids (aged 7 & 8) as well as their cousins (aged 6 & 8). I have experience with kids of many ages as I have frequently volunteered for childminding at my school and spent time at a local church helping out with childcare the past year. I also spent the last year tutoring students to increase their reading and comprehension skills. I spent time with kids in grades 2-4 and have built experience in handling frustration and boredom in children.

My skills and interests:

  • Music

  • Reading/storytelling
  • Drawing/painting
