  About Me
 
I am 25 years old and have started working for a nonprofit Organization after graduating from College in 2009. I have a strong passion for helping others and working with children, so I am excited to start exploring positions working with a family in the area. This will be a big change from my desk job. I am the youngest of three girls and I am very family oriented. I love spending time with them as much as I can. I am a very outgoing girl who loves to get out and do things. Dancing, visiting museums, and exploring Chicago are some of my favorite things to do. I babysit a lot before going to college and then occasionally while in school when I had extra time. Even though I have not been with a family long term, I am great with children and take all of my jobs very seriously. I am really to now turn my love for taking care of children into a long term commitment.
