I have never babysat as a "career", however, I have ample experience. I am 26 and I have two children (5yr and 3 yr boys). Also, my sister who is eight years older than I had her first child when I was 10 and has had 3 more of which I've babysat all often. Ages currently ranging between 6 and 15. I have not been updated on certification but I have been certified in CPR (including infant). I also took a certified child development class which I completed in 2014. I am a firm believer in providing a nurturing environment for children as well as involving them in activities to stimulate them and fueling brain development. My oldest child's father has custody of him but my youngest who is under my care is working on spelling 3 letter words and less, Can identify every letter, count to twenty, identify all Read more body parts etc. A baby sitting job where I could bring my youngest along to enjoy the company of his mother and other children would be preferable but not necessary. He is a very respectable and well behaved little boy. I am currently not living in my own residence so I would need to travel and sit in your home.
