Consistent babysitter for 2 young boys, ages 3 and newborn for a total of 3 years, averaging 5 hours, 5 days a week, with extra unpaid time just playing with them on the weekends. Activities included; kite flying, finger painting, story time, reading help, introduction to various technologies, picture taking and chasing the dragon that lived on top of the garage around the house. (Boys have such imaginations.) Also in charge of food preparation and light housework. The whole family eventually became very close friends of mine, and we are still close to this day, about 5 years later.

Since then, I've had mostly experience with infants, both boys and girls, as an occasional sitter, where I was responsible for food preparation, nap time, changing, light housework, and general entertainment that did not include the television. I am also fluent in American Sign Language and have been requested to teach sign to babies as well as their families, to open lines of greater communication.
