Additional Information
I was born and raised in Hungary, Europe. I left the country at age 21 and came to the United States in hopes of a better future for myself and possibly for my child/ren. I'm married to a Hungarian guy, we have an 18 year old boy, who is entering college in the fall. He is bilingual and loves spending time in Hungary with relatives and friends. I help my husband with our construction business from home. My favorite activity is going to Pilates classes, reading, traveling, being outdoors and watching movies.
I am passionate about babies, absolutely LOVE them! I started baby-sitting at age 16 back in Hungary caring for 2 girls, we still keep in touch, they are both over 30 years old now.
I would prefer night shifts caring for babies and/or newborns. Have my own transportation.
