I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. I have tons of experience and I am a very down to earth person. I love children and animals! While I may not be certified in CPR, I would be willing too. I am very good in crisis situations. I have watched my 16 year old niece her whole life. She is a special needs child with very limited vocabulary, incontinent and confined to a wheel chair. She also suffers from mild to severe seizures in which I have to time them and give her special meds if she isn't out of the seizure after 10 minutes. I also administer her daily meds to her 3 times a day while watching her. I also have an 8 year old nephew whom is rambunctious and hilarious! He loves to come stay with me in, as he calls it, the big city Read more lol. We love to go to the park, walk and play with my dogs, go fishing and our favorite, go to the zoo! My niece and nephew lost their Dad last April. And while my niece does not understand because of her handicap, my nephew has had a hard time. We talk about his Daddy and remember our favorite memories. We also craft and make wreaths and play dough statues for his grave:) I have watched children from newborn on up. Being an Aunt has been the most rewarding part of my life!
