I love being a sitter because it allows me to make a positive impact on children’s lives by being there to support, encourage, and have fun with them. I enjoy getting to know each child’s unique personality, interests, and sense of humor, and I feel fulfilled knowing I can provide a safe and engaging environment for them. Being a sitter lets me create fun activities and build bonds that make each child feel cared for and understood, which is incredibly rewarding for me. I have extensive experience working with children of various ages and needs. I regularly work as a tour guide, where I interact with children and families, developing strong communication and problem-solving skills. Additionally, I volunteer at my local church’s Vacation Bible School as the games coordinator, leading activities and ensuring that all children feel included and engaged. Through these experiences, I've gained the ability to balance fun Read more with structure, making sure each child feels safe and involved. In addition to my hands-on experience, I have developed skills in time management, communication, and creating engaging activities suited to different age groups. My role as a tour guide has taught me to communicate effectively with children and parents alike, while my experience at Vacation Bible School has given me insights into organizing group activities and maintaining a safe, supportive environment. I’m also familiar with supporting children who have different needs, as I have a close relationship with my autistic younger brother, which has taught me the importance of patience, understanding, and adaptability.
