About Dakota

I'd describe my personality as outgoing, upbeat, bubbly, and creative. I love working with kids because they bring so much joy to whoever is around. I started working with kids when I was 6 years old. I have watched my niece and nephew since they were born. When I was around 10, I would watch my dad's coworker's kids while the mom tended to the baby. At 12 is when I started to babysit alone with the two kids, ages from 2-4. Then around 16 I started to watch another kiddo, age 10, also a dad's coworker's kid. In my spare time, I like to read book, paint, color, sew, and train my service dog (please note that I do not need him with me when tending to your family. One thing you should know about me is I was a behavioral technician for kids with autism, I am very good at dealing with difficult behaviors. My skills include caring, comforting, and dealing with difficult behaviors. I am covid and flu vaccinated with boosters.
