I love babysitting because playing and helping a child just brings a smile to my face. I have been watching my baby sister since I was 8 years old until I turned 18 and we had a blast. She was a newborn to 10 years old and watching her grow and change and help her with any questions she had and hanging was something I looked forward to on the daily. I also used to teach kids to swim when I worked as a lifeguard and it was so fun hearing they're laughs but also I wanted to help when they were frustrated. For the last 2 years Ive been helping take care of a 4 year old and she was a doozy however I could get her to calm down. I am a smoker but won't smoke while babysitting.
