Hello everyone! My name is Shelby W. I am a very experienced babysitter and a new mother of a ten week old daughter. Caring for children and newborns has always been a passion of mine, I have been babysitting as long as I can remember. I love keeping kids busy with healthy, positive activities instead of sitting them in front of a television, it helps us establish a good relationship and engages your children while challenging them to learn new things. I used to babysit my mother's friend's children, aged 4 and 6 years old. I was entrusted with them for 4-6 hours, two to three times a week for over two years. The younger of the two needed specific medication and it was never an issue. My sister occasionally needs help watching her 4 year old son, I have watched him since he was a newborn and still continue Read more to watch him while she works. I have done it all with my nephew, including medication, feeding, watching a sick baby, keeping him busy with fun, healthy activities. I have recently been blessed with a beautiful daughter and I have been a full-time mom for the last three months. I encourage healthy eating, health and fitness is a very important to me and my family. I own a dog and a cat, so animals are never an issue. I won my own car so transportation is never a concern. I recently completed my Red Cross Babysitting Basics in January 2016 to ensure an up-to-date refresher course, after all nothing is more important than your child's safety. I am fully capable of watching children at any age and I would love the opportunity to meet you and your family.
