I have been babysitting since I was 12 (almost 7 years now) for children ages 0-12 and I taught swim lessons for children 2. 5-16 for almost two years. In my time as an instructor I learned to deal with children from all walks of life with a variety of mental and physical limitations. I have always strived to make sure every child I work with feels equal to their peers and has a sense of respect and responsibility for their caregivers. Positive reinforcement is typically the method I use to do this and 99% of the time I see children make leaps and bounds towards being amazing, functioning humans.
