A little bit about me

I started working as a babysitter for my own siblings who needed it when I was 14 until I was 20, I looked after my nieces and nephews until they were old enough to start school and no longer needed daytime care, after that I worked for a family for many many years, they had two children ages 8 months and 2 years old at the start of that position I was with them until the youngest started preschool and once they had started school I still worked with them for a year or so, I would still go in at 4 am as the parents where leaving for work and I would be responsible for waking the kids up, getting them breakfast, ready for school then taking them to school, picking them up after and staying with them until their parents returned home from work around 7 pm. I eventually received an opportunity to join a paid internship and pursue a field I'd been interested in so as much as it pained me to say goodbye to these children I'd basically watched grow up, I knew it was time.
