I am a very experienced sitter, I have more than 8+ years experience with children of all ages(4-5months-10 years old). I started out watching friends of my mom’s children, then the neighbors, next the neighbors were recommending me to several of their friends and I found myself on one Saturday that I could never forget with a den of about 6 children, aging from 1-8, and it was the most amazing experience. I have worked in daycares during Summer here and there for about 5 years, I also assist at the Boys and Girls Club on Mon., Wed., and sometimes Sat. Children are so precious and innocent, there has to be a cold stone in your heart if you can’t look at a child and just smile. I imagine when I was the young and how thankful I am that someone cared enough about me to make sure I grew Read more into the woman I am today. I feel the same way about children, I look at them and imagine what kind of person they will be based off of their early characteristics, what kind of job they will have, everything about their future. I love talking to them because they are so genuine and precious, I hate to even think that they eventually have to grow up and all of that love and innocence grows up with them. I cherish children, mostly because I have none most people say. However; I plan to have children in the near future and I want to be sure that I am prepared to give them nothing but the absolute best!
