Hi, my name is Shawn and I would make a great babysitter! I love kids and I have regularly cared for my little brother and sister, and my nieces and nephews. It's safe to say that I know a few tricks on how to take care of children and ensure that they are safe and happy. I can and am willing to do whatever is needed to make sure your child or children are taken care of. The children always come first. For smaller children, I can change diapers, feed them, and make they take naps. For older children, I can feed them, and make sure they have fun, and if needed I can add an educational aspect to the activities. I currently work for a non-profit organization called City Year. The organization specifically works with at risk youth in 21 elementary/middle and high schools around Chicago. I am constantly Read more prepping or working with students from 7 AM to 6 PM every weekday. However, when the program ends, I would still like to work with children. I also have a dog and am very good with pets. I have a large family, so I know how to make many people happy at once.
