I've had quite a lot of babysitting experience under my belt. While the majority of this was unpaid, I've had experience with paid babysitting jobs too. I love being able to help families enjoy some time off or honestly just play with the kids. I have done volunteer childcare at summer camps . I hope I can be helpful!
