I took care of my siblings for 3 years when my step-mother had our last boy. She went back to work after 3 months. I took care of them mostly in the evening from 4 p.m. - 11 p.m. The ages were twins of 4 years and a months old boy. I was in high school at that time but did my best to provide good care for them.
