Many references available upon request! Ever since I was 12 years old, I have been working as a mother's helper as well as a babysitter for neighbors and close family friends. Eventually my client base expanded to friends of family friends who recommended me whenever babysitting was brought up. I continued to babysit throughout high school, and during the summer before I went to college, I started a job as a "teen helper" at a local preschool. I would fill in for sick teachers and take care of the children (ranging in age from 12 months to 6 years) whenever necessary. The following year I was promoted to summer camp counselor. I also worked as a seasonal camp counselor (kids ages 5 - 12) at Skate Station Funworks in Gainesville, FL for 2.5 years. I believe babysitting should be interactive, and I prefer to play games with kids, do arts-and-crafts, Read more or play outdoors as opposed to watching TV all day long (although movie night can be fun!). Reading has been one of my favorite things to do ever since I was little, and I always encourage children to do the same. I love working with kids, and I have experience taking care of children up to the age of 17.
