I have been a babysitter for 6 years. I have taken care of children of various ages, from infants to middle schoolers. Along with safety, of course, one of my main focus points is communication. It is very important for me to not only keep the parents updated with our daily routine, however, also giving the child the freedom to speak and express himself or herself to me in the best way that they can. I also know multiple languages, English, Portuguese, and Spanish that I would be pleased to teach.
