My sister became pregnant at 21 and so I would help her babysit my nephew who is currently 4 since the day he was born. I love that I am able to teach him how to do things such as play sports, talk, learn, and use skills he isn't used to using. I love being able to see him grow and prosper into a great human with manners. I have also babysat for a 2-year-old girl during the day and loved that as well. On top of this I enjoy making the kids food as I did take Culinary for three years and I enjoy getting to really know them. Babysitting has inspired me to become a Social Worker helping the younger kids who need it the most. I do not discriminate, judge, or have any biases which I think is very important in this line of work. I understand Read more children learn by example and so I do my very best to set a good example and be a role model this children can look up to and be inspired by. I am also a College student-athlete and can share some very good skills and lessons. Overall, I love working with children and it has been a passion for a couple years now.
