Hi there! I’ve been babysitting since I was 13, so for almost 40 years now. I do have experience with diabetes, learning disabilities and have taken care of someone with a pic line. I am very compassionate and loving and a quick learner for anything else. I have a little medical knowledge from college but never finished. I believe I can handle most anything and would love to take care of your little ones. I’m not squeamish, freak out nor quick to anger. I’m also old enough to know when I’m being played so I try to have a firm handle on things but go about it with a silly and light attitude, unless that doesn’t work. I can read to, do light cleaning, play games, go on walks ,outings, prepare meals, help with homework or outside for fresh air and sunshine when appropriate, watch tv or take your loved Read more one to appointments. I am versatile and aim to please.
