I enjoy watching children. I started being a mothers helper when I was about 13 for three kids. I have 13 younger cousins that I have so much fun playing with. I am thinking about going into the teaching career for younger children because I do enjoy playing with them and I get along good with all ages.

FAQs for finding a mother's helper

In a lot of cases mother’s helpers take on many of the same babysitter duties that a normal babysitter does. A mother’s helper can help with homework, can supervise children, and can even do light housework. The biggest difference between a sitter and a mother’s helper is typically their age. Usually, a mother’s helper is a “babysitter in training” who isn’t old enough to be alone in a home with children, but can help keep an eye on children while parents are nearby while taking some time to themselves. Review 2 profiles to see which responsibilities mother’s helpers near you are happy to take on.
