Ever since my baby sister was born when I was 5, I loved being around children. I've done babysitting jobs over the years for relatives and local families. I am currently an employee of the South Mountain YMCA's school-aged child care program, with just over a year of cumulative experience there. I have worked with two public schools supervising as many as one hundred kids at a time along with my team members, which has given me the comfort and ability to work with multiple children at a time. Children and I are mutually drawn to each other. I have a knack for keeping children happy and entertained, and they do the same for me. One thing that separates me from other sitters is that I have an expanse comfort zone in terms of age. I have babysat children as young as 16 months and as old as 13 years, Read more with no issue going younger or older. The YMCA's training programs have given me over a dozen hours of child care training, including that in child safety, supervision, sexual abuse prevention, etc. What makes me such a reliable babysitter is my ability to simultaneously have the mindset of a child and the maturity of an adult, and I hope to use my skills to give your entire family the best experience possible.
