have been a natural caregiver since I was little. I grew up with 3 kids at my house (two nieces and a nephew), when the youngest was only 1 and the oldest 8 and 9. Back then I would be in charge of taking care of them on the weekends. After I moved to the States I babysat for some of my dad's neighbors, until they were old enough to take care of themselves. Now I take care of adults with disabilities at their homes, so I have a lot of experience dealing with emergencies and thinking fast. It wasn't until I started this job that I learned the beauty of taking care of others and becoming a part of their lives. But I have always been a kid at heart, which is why I want to start babysitting again. I would also help them with homework, specially when it Read more comes to Spanish since it is my first language. I can cook and clean as well. Children usually love spending time with me, but probably not as much as I like being around them. I really enjoy being outside and I encourage a lot of reading.
