Helene W. Babysitter in Seattle, WA 98199. Looking for work as a babysitter or mother's helper.

I have had a lot of different families that I have had the chance to work for over the years, and seeing those kids start to grow up has been wonderful. I really have missed working with kids since I moved and would like to start babysitting again.

• I graduated WSU recently and have a full time job at a bank.
• I have been taking care of children for a little over 10 years. 
• I currently don't have any families that I am working for, the last family in Seattle I worked with had 2 high engery boys 2 & 7 as well as a girl inbetween at the age of 5.
• I am probably most comfortable with kids between the ages of 3 and 8 but I have had a lot of experience with all ages.
• I do not have any children of my own except a 3yr old godson. I do not have any pets at the moment but I grew up with lots of cats and often take care of a few pitbulls, so I am not fearsome around big dogs.
• I don't currently volunteer regularly but recently worked for Women's Transit, driving women safely to their destination at night. Before that I worked at a Science center every Sunday afternoon.
• I minored in Spanish, so I am pretty close to fluent in it. I am also part Italian so I have a basic understanding of that language too but cannot speak it.
• I do not have a strict philosophy when it comes to caregiving besides "what the parents say is law".
• I love playing games with kids, especially ones that any age can play and will have fun with, from board games, to exercise related games trampolines are the best, to just sitting having some fun creating new things with paper, I love seeing how creative kids can be.

 In addition to having a bunch of years babysitting, I have worked at a popular swimming pool with over 300 students a week starting at 6months to 17yrs old so I have got to experience all types of personalities.
