I've been babysitting since I was 13-15, I'm now 23 and I have babysat babies, toddlers, teenagers, special needs, all of the above as well as pets - I have had many over the years and vet assistant training/schooling. I also own three dogs who adore children. I know how to change diapers, clean, cook and bake. I have helped with homework, chores and discipline. I will not touch your child, they're not mine so I do different forms of punishment, such as corners, wall sits, excercise stuff (if old enough) as I don't allow one to do things wrong and get away with it. It will cause issues and I don't want your child thinking they can get away with stuff they wouldn't usually, plus I have my own rules as well as following the parents. I care for your children as if they're part of my family, as I would want someone to do for me. Your child should be happy to be with their babysitter as well as happy to go home, that is what I offer. I am also an expecting new mother, hence why I can't travel too much, but I have motherly instincts I always have so your child will be safe with me as well. I enjoy making children laugh and have fun, so I do hope your child is prepared to have fun when they're with me.
