I have been caring for children for my family since I was 15 years old. I cared for my 2 nephews when they were 1 years old and 5 months. It was fairly easy. I cooked them breakfast then I played with them for an hour or two. Next I put them both down for a nap. By the time the awoke my sister was home from work.
