I have had over ten years of experience with babysitting, ages ranging from new born to 12 years old. I have had three years of experience as a nanny, ages ranging from new born to 10 years old. I love working with children! I can be active with them, help them with homework and make sure they are fed well and always looked after. I have never lost track of any child, and when I am watching one or many children at a time I am good at making sure everything is fair and fun and safe. I believe in being responsible as an adult when watching children includes being proactive in ensuring no one gets hurt. I understand how important it is to be watchful and attentive, and fun! I've come to really understand children over the years, and understanding them makes a big difference to them. Children are Read more smart and can tell when someone cares and can tune into them on their level. A little about myself.. I am a student working on a degree in English, currently taking classes online. I have three brothers! Two of them are younger than me, 8 and 10. I've been watching them and helping care for them since they were born. They are my favorite. I love hanging out with them. I've done a bit of traveling.. I lived in a small town in Illinois for a year and I also lived in Chicago for a year. It was a lot of fun. I play the guitar and work with charcoal and paint (though that has been a while!). I love to read, mostly fiction or educational non-fiction in subject areas I am interested in. Thank you so much for taking the time out to view and read over my profile. Good luck in finding the sitter that is the right fit for you, if you feel that could be me please feel free to message me on here or text/call me (714)316-8727 :)
