I started my babysitting career as a mother's helper around the age of 12 because I loved children. As soon as I was able to care for children on my own, I took on the responsibility. I do not consider babysitting a job since I love it so much, I consider it a hobby! I am in my senior year of college studying psychology and plan to get my doctorate when I finish my undergraduate studies. I have been a caregiver for seven years and have cared for different types of families, from a family with two calm children, to a family with three very energetic young children. I most often care for a family with a daughter who is 5 and a son who is 3. Aside from being a care taker, I volunteered for Adaptive Aquatics for four years and taught children, teens, and adults with mental and Read more physical disabilities to swim. I am fluent in Spanish. When I am care giving, I follow the parents directions as well as make the experience enjoyable for the children so they want me back.
