Meet Helen
- Comfortable with pets
I have always been a nurturer. I love kids, animals, the elderly, anyone that needs my assistance, I'm there. I love being able to help out in areas when people need it the most. I have rescued three cats in my lifetime, and given CPR to an infant. I am the middle child of five children, always being told to keep an eye on my younger siblings, so my older siblings could play in the neighborhood. I didn't mind having to take care of them, it gave me the experience I needed, for I started babysitting other people's kids at 12 years old. People trusted me with their children by the time I was 12... Completely bizarre if you ask me, but I gave off the maturity and sense of safety people craved. I have babysat a blind, deaf, and autistic six year old, a child with extremely difficult (but Read more not impossible) behavioral problems, and even a family of 9 kids. (All under the age of 11) I have taken care of children for long term while their mother's weaned off drugs, I have been responsible for a countless amount of children, every second of which I loved. From toddlers, to middle schoolers, from the young to the elderly, nothing is too chaotic.
