Dear future family! My name is Alina Behnen and I am 18 years old. I am from germany but I am already in the United States. I am looking for a fun and lovely family! I started babysitting when I was 12 years old. Julian and Maik are the sons of my parents’ friends. Back than my sister Laura took care of Julian, who was five years old. Then Maik was born and Laura showed me how to take care of Julian and the newborn. That is why I know the two boys since they were little kids. Since then I usually have to look after them twice a week. At the beginning I had to bathe them, change their clothes and feed them. Now we do activities like playing soccer, doing homeworks, swimming or visiting the cinema, too. With this I learnt to accept the responsibility and to take Read more measures. Sometimes it is hard to handle two little active boys, but I like to take on a fresh challenge because you can grow with this. I also was a babysitter for Leonie and Simon. Since three years I take care of them in the evening, when their parents would like to go out. Usually once a month I have to bring them to bed after playing a game. Additional, I cast an eye at the children from the neighborhood, when a child’s mother is shopping. Overall, I have many experiences with nearly every age of a child. I think I am a very outgoing and cheerful person, because I like to have people around me and I love it to laugh. My friends say that I handle conflicts and stressful moments very well and that I have a good sense of responsibility. Moreover, I would describe me as an honest and self-confident girl which is excited to make new experiences. There is so much more I can tell you about me and my childcare experience. I hope hearing from you soon! Best wishes, Alina
