She hopes her Big Sister will be nice, funny and hopefully likes soccer. Olivia is very sweet and loves to do almost anything! She also wants to be a Doctor or a nurse when she grows up.

Olivia’s mother would like a Big Sister for her daughter so she can have someone to confide in and provide opportunities to better herself.  Olivia needs a Big Sister who is patient, kind, and a good listener.
