Being a caregiver/babysitter/Nanny helped me pick my major at school. I chose to major in Sociology/Anthropology with a concentration in criminal justice. Someday I would like to be social worker or work for CPS. I think children are amazing, fun, energetic, and great to be around. What would make me good at being a great babysitter is that I would put the well-being of the children at the top of my list. I enjoy being around kids and I have many years of experience watching children. I still keep in touch with the children that I have watched in the past. Children are full of energy and that requires me to play and interact with the children. I am very trustworthy, honest and reliable. Parents want someone they can trust around their children to make sure their children are safe and treated with the respect. I motivate and encourage children Read more to act and think positive. It is my job to make sure children are safe and happy. I can commit to on year if a family prefers that and we can go from there.
