I have had 7 going on 8 years of experience taking care of children. On my fathers side I happened to be the oldest so growing up with a younger sister and 6 first cousins and 6 second cousins I have always watched my family care for the younger ones, and have always helped. When I turned 13 years old is when i started babysitting. I have cared for children between the ages of newborn and 8 years old, from taking on 1 child to 5 kids at a time. I am now 20 years old and gained more experience with now having a son of my own who is currently turning 3 years old.
