I started babysitting when I was a freshman in high school for two girls who, at the time, were 5 and 8. What started off as working weekend jobs turned into becoming part of their family. I loved coming up with fun creative games to keep us entertained, I enjoyed playing as much as they did! 5 years later I am still in touch with them, they are now 17 and 14, and if you want a reference they love, love, love to brag about how much fun we had. My most recent job was to watch over a 6 month old boy, which has given me plenty of diaper changing, burping, and bottle feeding experience. I truly enjoy children and being someone impactful in their lives to look up to. I have now graduated college and am working full time but would love to help on weekends and after Read more work. -- Just an added perk I am certified in CPR, AED, and First Aid as of last year!
