Shy kid turned outgoing!

Hi there! My name is Anna, I'm 19 years old. I have a deep love for pets and a passion for learning new things. I share my home with two adorable kitties who are a big part of my life, so if you have cats, that’s a bonus!

Over two years during high school, I gained valuable experience supervising children aged 2 to 11. I genuinely enjoyed the time I spent with them, and I always strive to keep them entertained and engaged while ensuring they follow the rules. While I haven't had the opportunity to potty train a child yet, I'm eager and willing to learn and adapt to new challenges.

I’m excited about the chance to meet you and your family, and I look forward to the opportunity to provide a fun and caring environment for your little ones!
