My name is Roberta Taylor, I am 19 and have been babysitting since I was about 14. I have babysat for my church nursery and in home sitting also, anywhere from babies to 3 older children. I have babysat many times for a friend whose son has Williams Syndrome, and he was well taken care of! I enjoy babysitting because it gives you the opportunity to get to know a child and spend time with them as they grow up. Becoming a friend but also someone they can look up to, because to me this job is about more than just being a watchful eye..its being interactive, learning the child..what they like, don't like, favorite show, and watching it 10 times with them if they ask because that bonding time is going to be pretty memorable for some children! And that is my favorite part of this job, making good Read more memories and being a friend to the little ones😀
