| I am a 19 year old American with goals of someday owning my own daycare. I take child care very seriously, children are the future of our world and society, and I believe they should be treated and cared for as such. I treat the children I care for with respect and dignity as the little adults they are, but while still maintaining the innocence and playfulness that they deseve. I have been babysitting regulary for family and friends in my small town since I was a preteen, but have been a live-in nanny and over-night care taker for two years now. I love kids, they bring out the inner child in me and I genuinely enjoy being their friend and part of their lives. I believe we all have a lesson or two to learn from our little humans.
