I am a very caring and loving person. I have watched my sisters children many times. I took some courses in high school including child development 1 and 2. In those courses I got to take a baby simulator home and get practice with newborns. I also got the opportunity to help out at a daycare/preschool. We were responsible for keeping the kids happy and safe. Some of the reaponsibilites were taking them out for recess, helping them out with snack time, reading to them, crafts, and making them reaponsible and respectful children. Having that opportunity made me a more patient person and made me realize how much I love being around children. I am also willing to help out around the house and cook for the children. I want to be able to keep your children happy and safe.
