My favorite thing about working with children is watching the way their imaginations work and playing a role in their everyday lives. To entertain children I usually like to do a craft or some kind of activity that involves movement like playing soccer or going to the park.

I love getting to know the children and becoming someone they can look up to. I would play any board games, or watching movies with them. If they like to play any sports outside I would love to play with them. I can also help them with their homework!

My favorite thing about working with children is the learning opportunity that sometimes is overlooked. Personally, each of the children I have babysat has taught me something that I would have never known (whether it be something as simple as how to play a video game) and I know that they have learned things from me also (like the importance of safety when playing indoors and outdoors). To me entertaining a child can consists of many activities, but the most important part is letting the child know that you are interested and continuously engaging with them. I know that children are always looking to show us something and they truly appreciate it when we show our excitement towards their activities/ passions. For example, a child I have been babysitting for the past 3 summers LOVES online games/ videos and his dog. Because of this, I always show interest in whatever game he wants me to play or whenever he wants to go outside I make sure his dog is with us.

I believe that babysitting can be a great adventure. I have many younger cousins so growing up, childcare has always come naturally to me. I enjoy having the ability to be a helping hand to parents and being able to grow myself in many areas such as responsibility, time management, safety, and organization skills.

Being around kids is my happy place because kids are so joyful, full of happiness and intelligent. I love teaching and helping kids! I will do any outside activities the kids would like to do, playing tag, planting flowers, sports and just having fun and keeping the child entertain and smiling.

My favorite thing about working with children is how interesting and exciting they make everything. Whether or not you are doing something that they've done a million times before, they always bring so much enthusiasm and help me to see things with fresh eyes the way that they do.

I grew up around children. I have three younger sisters and my mother is a teacher. When I was younger, I would tutor with my mother in a math summer camp at her school. As I got older, I started to tutor in both math and piano individually. I have always had a love for being with children and especially being able to teach them.

I have 11 years of experience with kids. I have worked with newborns all the way up to teens. My favorite thing about working with kids is making them happy and seeing them smile. I like to entertain kids by getting them outside to play or by helping them learn new things.
