I am a 30 year old, bilingual (Spanish) returning college student. I have been a babysitter since I was 12. I have also worked in childcare with children from 6 months up to 14 including chilldren with special needs. My most recent consistent babysitting experience, was with a family with two daughters that I started to care for about 6 years ago. I am very close with the family and earned their trust and respect. At this point, however, the oldest daughtet is now mature enough to be left to care for herself and younger sister while the parents are gone for short periods of time. I no longer assit them with babayistting so much, however they would be more than happy to be contacted as references. I believe I possess the heart and sensiblity that can always find a way to connect with a young one and at the Read more same time be mindful of their safety. I tend to have the most patience with children and because of that, I believe they tend to naturally respect me.
