About Marifer
I have been watching children of all ages for about 5 years now and I enjoy doing it. Honestly speaking they can be difficult sometimes as they throw tantrums or have disagreements with their siblings but I must say I have learned to deal with such situations.

I have been watching children of all ages for about 5 years now and I enjoy doing it. Honestly speaking they can be difficult sometimes as they throw tantrums or have disagreements with their siblings but I must say I have learned to deal with such situations. I enjoy interacting with them and try to keep them active most of the time. I love taking them to places just to get them to stay away from watching TV!
I've been with 4 families in total working as a part-time since I also go to school at the same time at University of Texas at Dallas as a junior finishing up my bachelors in Biochemistry.
I first started out with babysitting at night, usually on the weekends as the parents go out or whenever there's an evening event during the weekdays. I would just watch them, order in, fix dinner,or take them out to the movies, give them baths and make sure they brush their teeth and get on their PJ's, then put them to bed no later than what I've been told. Perhaps squeeze in a few extra minutes.
Then there was this one family that I worked for regularly only on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the morning throughout the afternoon. There were two boys and one girl that would constantly keep me busy playing pretend with her. I also did some light housekeeping such as making beds, loading/unloading the dishwasher, etc. but mostly involved being active with the kids. Experience includes the usual routine that I normally do such as helping them get dressed in the morning/night, give them baths, fix their meals, homework tutorial, errands, etc.
The last family that I worked for had also three kids, in which two were twins. My weekly salary was about $250-$300 weekly and that was from 3-6pm. It mainly involved picking up the kids and bringing them back home to do homework, baths, and fix dinner.
I also try my best to keep the kids active and eat healthy. If they want a snack, they get one freebie thats unhealthy (sweets) but after that they can either have an apple or a healthier substitute.
I dont mind having a pet or pets in the house, it is totally fine with me as long as they don't bite! :)
I believe I have said enough about my experience and I am looking forward to meeting a new family that I can share my passion with children.
