As a babysitter, my primary responsibility is to ensure the safety, well-being, and happiness of the children under my care. I supervise and engage them in age-appropriate activities, including games, crafts, and educational exercises, to encourage learning and development. I prepare and serve nutritious meals and snacks, assist with homework, and follow bedtime routines to maintain consistency. Additionally, I handle light housekeeping tasks such as tidying play areas and cleaning up after meals. With my CPR certification, I am prepared to respond to emergencies and ensure a secure environment. I also communicate regularly with parents to provide updates and address any concerns, ensuring a positive and trustworthy experience for both children and families.
