I am a College student looking to earn some money and get experience watching children to be a daycare provider/stay at home mom in the future.
In previous years when my cousins were younger (around ages 7-11) I babysat them while my aunt and uncle went out during the evenings. I have friends with younger brothers and sisters. I love being around children and especially babies. I hope to be a stay at home mom some day and am trying to get more experience.
