I have a degree in Elementary Education. I have been a teacher of first graders, four year old children and worked part-time in the infant room of a daycare. I recently tutored children in elementary school and enjoyed that immensely, but unfortunately the program stopped. I enjoyed teaching but I had to leave teaching full-time. I have had CPR training for children and babies and adults. I have had many babysitting jobs, especially in high school and college. I was a nanny for two children in Chicago for two summers while I attended college. I have had a great deal experience with the children of all ages. I grew up in a family of ten children and was responsible for the children, babies and for the household chores as well. I have no children of my own but I feel I have had many experiences with children it feels like Read more I have had children. I know how important in development a child needs to interact with other people to learn basic skills. Small motor skills are extremely important for babies and children, such as playing, reading, role playing is vital for growth in development. Being loving, showing affection is necessary for the child's self esteem. I especially want to find a babysitting job with babies or small children,I loved that the most and miss it
