I began babysitting when I was around 13 years old! In total, I have babysat for over 50 families. I've babysit for kids with autism, and other needs. The kids I have watched have ranged from newborn to teenagers. I love working with kids of all ages. I am a crafty and creative person, so I love doing arts and crafts with the kids and going out and doing fun activities that we can make up. On top of babysitting, I also tutor for kids and many different subjects! I started working with kids because children are the future and they are so pure and fragile. I love having an impact on someone and kids always make you feel loved! Yes it can be challenging, but it is totally worth it in the end!
