I am a responsible babysitter I make sure that children are safe because most children aren’t aware of the dangers so it is important to keep an eye on them and make sure I watch every move they make. I have been taking care of my baby sister since she was a newborn she is now 5. I love having fun with children and reading books to them it’s always cute seeing them learn new things. I am patient, it’s important to have patience! especially with young children I know how frustrated children can get and it’s important to have patience with them and actually talk to them instead of screaming at them hoping they “calm down”. When children get frustrated with me it is important for me to talk to them positively because it is our responsibility as adults to teach them to express their frustrations.
