I grew up in a big family and although they all live in Minnesota, we make it a point to see them as much as possible and keep in contact. This amazing sense of family is what I bring to the table. I do not want to take the place of a parent, but just be a person they can look up to and have a great time with while showing them the difference between right and wrong. I am pretty casual and laid back. I don't mind getting dirty and digging in the dirt. I love teaching kids and having fun and being creative all at time same time.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets:   Languages spoken: English, Spanish    My Nationality: American  Background Check:   Eligible to work in the U.S.:   Civil Status: Married  Religion/Spiritual Practice:         Work Experience & Education Background   1 years experience, 3 references I have always loved children, but ever since I had my son, I have wanted to work with them and make that into my career.
