I have been babysitting for over 12 years now and have worked with children from ages 2 weeks up to 14 years old comprising households with one kid as well as households with multiple kids. Babysitting has always been something that I have enjoyed. Throughout my years I had the opportunity to become very close with the families that I babysat for and definitely had the experience of both staying overnight and vacationing with them as well. I have stayed over not only during emergencies, but also in prearranged situations where the parents just needed a night away from the house. I have vacationed with families for week long periods and simple weekend trips. My duties as a babysitter included everything from bringing the children to school, doctor appointments, sport practices/games as well as getting them up and ready for school, making lots of healthy meals, going to the park Read more or library, helping them clean up their rooms, and pretty much everything under the sun! Working with kids for so many years, I have come to understand that children come into the world with a blank slate. The experiences, environment, adults, as well as surroundings are what shape them into who they become. I feel our responsibility as parents and caregivers is to provide children with the best possible education, knowledge, and choices so they are able to grow to their maximum potential. I believe that children should be given the ability to become independent individuals by setting limits with positive discipline, praise, and encouragement. I enjoy being surrounded by children because of their imagination, innocence, and creativity.
