“ Babysitting is my only job. I have been babysitting on the side for years. Now I don't have another job and I am babysitting full time. I currently watch a few families here and there. I am watching a 7-week-old, 1-year-old, 2-year-old, 3-year-old, 8-year-old, 10-year-old, and a 13-year-old. I also work in the nursery at a church watching around 10 kids of all ages. I am experienced with animals of all kinds...

Babysitting is my only job. I have been babysitting on the side for years. Now I don't have another job and I am babysitting full time. I currently watch a few families here and there. I am watching a 7-week-old, 1-year-old, 2-year-old, 3-year-old, 8-year-old, 10-year-old, and a 13-year-old. I also work in the nursery at a church watching around 10 kids of all ages. I am experienced with animals of all kinds (dogs, cats, rabbits, cavys, snakes, alligators, iguanas, turtles, birds, rats, mice, and hamsters). I am going to school for Spanish. I am nowhere near fluent yet.
My care-giving philosophy is to keep the parents happy, and follow their rules. It is what the kids are used to and what they should stick to. Although, I do try to keep them away from the TV as much as possible.

I go to school during the day. I am currently in class Monday and Wednesday from 11:15-12:45 and Tuesday and Thursday from 11:15-1:15.
