I am currently a first year university student and am looking for a way to earn extra income without struggling to balance my work at the same time. Before university, I would look after two children (one 6 year old and one 9 year old). However, I also have experience looking after babies and toddlers and their parents have definitely been pleased with my skills. Being part of a large family myself, I know that looking after children is a big task but I feel that I can take that task on. University has definitely given me more independence too which has allowed me to explore my cooking skills: something that might be useful to parents who have to work late. Furthermore, I have two dogs at home so pets will not be an issue for me. I hope that you consider my application in regards to babysitting and I look forward to potentially hearing from you.
