Always Love Doing Activities, Getting Crafty Or Even Just Watching Their Favorite Cartoons.
I have always watched over my younger brothers since I was old enough to stay home alone. My mom always trusted me. Then I went to babysitting baby cousins, my Mom's friend's kids & etc. Always told myself I would be a babysitter or nanny. I have not yet got hired on by someone before but I am hoping this will be my start.
