Hello, my name is Sonya. I have been babysitting for the last eight years and I have experience with all different kinds of children. I have worked with children who have special needs and with kids of all ages. Some of the things I like to do with the kids that I babysit include going to the park, making crafts, reading stories, baking and many other fun and active activities! I don't like to put kids in front of the tv, so I find fun activities for us to do together. In my past experiences, I have cooked meals, given baths, and anything else the children may have needed. Growing up, my family had an in-home daycare and I always helped out with all of the children (and loved it!). Currently, I am a stay at home mother of 1, but will be going back to school soon. I would Read more love the opportunity to see if I am a good fit for you and your family. Please message me with any questions you may have and I will respond quickly.
