Meet Andrew
- Comfortable with pets
I have a lot of experience compared to most 18 year olds. I started babysitting when I was six years old. My family would leave me in charge of my newborn nephew quite frequently. When I started my first grade year there was a girl with special education needs and had bad ADHD but for some reason she would only do her work if I helped her. Situation like that continue to happen throughout the short amount of time I've been on this earth. Most recently I met a girl with autism and anger "issues." She was suppose to be in 10th grade but couldn't comprehend anything above a third grade level. But when I started helping her, she rarely got frustrated and said I made things very easy to understand. She is now one of my close friends. To get back to my babysitting experience, when I was 10 Read more years old I was left in charge of my newborn niece frequently and still watch her to this day, she is now 7 1/2 years old and constantly wants to be around me. I am willing to babysit, animal sit, clean, help with homework and cook. I enjoy helping people and making other people's lives easier and less stressful. I am very relaxed, and laid back but when it's time to be serious I will always step up. If you would like anymore information or have questions, feel free to contact me and I would be glad to answer.
