I started babysitting for a family of 4 when I was 16. Then, I slowly started babysitting for more families. I even babysat a life group with the help of my sister that had 21 kids. I know CPR and am experienced with all ages of kids. I am also comfortable and have experience with carpooling and driving kiddos around.
