I was practically raised by my grandparents, therefore I feel that is why many people say that I have an old soul. By being raised by my grandparents, I was exposed to many things early on. One of them being how to love and care for, not just a child, but for any human being. I am currently helping to raise my younger brother. I enjoy reading, shopping, cooking, playing games, arts and crafts, exploring the outdoors as well as meeting new people, especially children. I have been told that I am very dependable, honest, respectful, trustworthy, easy to get along with, unique, and very caring and enjoyable to be around.      Valid Driver's License: No  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: No  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: No  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status:   Religion/Spiritual Practice:         Work Experience & Education Background   3 years experience, 3 references Although I do not have much, rather than any childcare experience, I intend to care for children just as I care for my little girl scouts, that I chaperone, as if they were my own.
