I started baby-sitting at age 12 for family and neighbors. Before I was old enough to get a job I made money by baby sitting. I grew up in a big family with 7 brothers and 1 sister. I often baby sat my siblings as well. As I got older I started liking baby sitting a little more. Soon I was the go to baby sitter in our neighborhood. When I graduated high school I went 4 hours away from home for college. I was a full time student and I worked. As I met people in my new town many of them had little ones and would ask around for someone to watch them and me being the kid lover that I am I would always volunteer myself. A few years after being in college and working I met a guy at work that told me him and his Read more lady were expecting a little boy. I got really excited and started asking what kinds of things does she need for him and how she was doing. Not knowing that a month after he was born I would be watching him and their older two. I got attached to them and became a nanny for them I would take the kids to school pick them up, take them to the park for play time, take them to the library for story time, I spent a lot of my time with these three. Then I landed a job at a youth center that is ran by family social services in Indiana. My job was to mentor the youth, be a good role model to them, hold them accountable for the good things and the bad things, as well as making sure they were following their program while I was on duty. This job was sometimes stressful but more rewarding than anything.
