Hi! My name is Matthew and I am 19 years old. I know that most people prefer a female babysitter and I completely understand why people are skeptical of hiring a male as a sitter, but I've always loved kids. As the oldest of 3 younger brothers, I've always had to help take care of and entertain kids. I use to do a lot of babysitting for kids who were pre-school/ elementary age back when I was in middle school. During my school vacations like in the summer, I would volunteer at my old elementary school's daycare center. I helped keep an eye on the kids, and helped with group activities like games and arts and crafts. I would also travel on field trips with the daycare to lend a hand. Now, I still work with kids every weekend as a birthday party host at Chuck E. Cheese's. I am Read more regularly requested and asked for as a birthday party host there due to my ability to make a connection with kids and work with their families as well. I am also very dependable, hard working, creative, and caring, which I think are some of the biggest things that make me successful in everything I do. I know that you have a lot of choices and things to consider when looking for a babysitter, but I hope that you really consider me when making a decision. I genuinely have a passion to work with kids, I have a lot of experience and I am very capable. If you are still reading, thank you very much for your time and I hope to have the pleasure of working with your family.
