I have over five years of babysitting experience and truly enjoy caring for children of all ages. During each school year, I regularly care for a family after school, where I pick the children up from the bus, help with their after-school routines, assist with homework.In addition to babysitting, I serve in the baby room as well as the 4- and 5-year-old classrooms at my church, where Iโve gained valuable experience working with children at different developmental stages. I also worked as a YMCA camp counselor, where I assisted with daily activities, supervised children, encouraged teamwork, and helped create a fun experience for everyone.Iโve also completed two child development courses through my college. These experiences have helped me become a responsible, patient, and dependable caregiver who values each childโs safety, well being, and happiness.
