Full-time hoursI have been a child care provider for six years now and my church for a variety of ages. I started as a volunteer, then I started working there soon after.

Its a job I hope to have for a long time.

I babysat for my neighbor for over a year with a little boy Sam who wasnt quite one at the time and have also babysat for children older than 10. I have also volunteered at my old elementary school as a teachers assistant and work with children with autism as well as other mental illness.

1 yrs of experienceI am a stay at home mom. I am twenty years old. And I am looking for work I do from home. And babysitting fits perfectly! I love kids and love learning from them, as well as helping them learn and grow. Finding the right person to watch your kids isn't easy. There needs to be a connection. All kids are different, they are people. But most importantly they are people who want to learn. They want someone who they and their parents can trust. You can have the best nanny or babysitter in the country. But if the kid or the parent doesn't trust or get along with them it won't work. And I fully understand this. I like to spend time with the child/children and their parents before I can watch them, to ensure they feel comfortable with me. It's not easy for a child to stay with a stranger, or for a parent to trust a stranger to watch their kids. That's why I feel its important to meet and get to know everyone and for everyone to meet and get to know me.
