Baby Sitter
June - August 2019 • Orange, TX
What I liked
I loved the family I was working for and the opportunities to invest in the boys I watched! We did several age-appropriate lessons in social skills as well as what could be considered classroom content intermixed with playtime and they had so much fun!
What I wish was different
I honestly can’t think of anything- they were flexible with my schedule when necessary, the boys were well-behaved 98% of the time, and I was paid generously.
Advice
Definitely learn the internal clocks of the kids you watch to know how to keep them entertained or how to wear then out so they’ll take a nap.
