I haven't had children in my life for a while, but these are the things that I have done in my lifetime. Babysitting – (Late -1980’s) Cared for and looked after approximately 12 children one night per week at my home while the parents attended church meetings. I loved talking to and laughing with the children. Just being a part of their play time (playing with the toys with them) was so much fun. Believe me, at my age (52) I still have toys, hoping that I will be able to work with children again. This time not only in play, but in helping them learn, as an important part of development. (Early-1980’s) Cared for two little girls ages 3 and 4 for about a year until their parents moved. I am a caring person, believe in respecting others feelings, and am honest. Having children in my life again would Read more be very rewarding to me. It would be something great to look forward to. Caregiver from 1998 – 2012 Provided home care; daily bathing, dressing and feeding each one. Did some grocery shopping and prepared meals daily. It was my responsibility to make sure all were comfortable. Mainly parents; have passed. While care-giving; continued to direct choir until 2008. Directed Church Choir of 12 for 23 years I enjoy playing music, yard work, talking to and helping elderly persons, and interacting with children.
