  About Me
 
I come from a traditional family in Indiana. I love children and adolescents of all ages, but typically enjoy 2-4 year olds the most. I have excellent written and spoken communication skills. I have a bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Science Education (formerly known as Home-Economics) Upon pursuing my degree, I was required to take college coursework in Child Development, Nutrition, Cooking, Family studies, Fashion and textiles and Housing and design. I believe that I am qualified to take care of your home and childcare needs. I am a very professional person and hardworking. I am looking for long-term employment, as I tend to get attached to those I am working with. Some of my hobbies include scrapbooking, crafting, playing games, being outdoors, and noticing the beauty in life. I know SOME spanish (conversationally). I also have excellent interpersonal relationship skills.
