Expertise
I can answer some questions about raising infants. I am a young mother of 2 little girls. My oldest daughter is Morgan and she is 4yrs and my youngest is Alyssa and she is 1yr. I can also be a good listener to other young parents who don`t know exactly what to do or to those who just need a friend. I also had a nephew who passed away at birth so I know how hard it is and can lend kind words and a friendly shoulder in that area as well.

Experience
I am a mother of 2 little girls. I also have 4 neices and 4 nephews one of which unfortunetly passed away at birth. I am also a friendly and caring person who people can confide in.BR>
