I am someone who has grown up helping the family with cooking dinner, cleaning up, doing the washing and looking after my younger siblings and cousins when needed. The skills needed for babysitting/nannying are really second nature to me. I have frequently babysat for over 5 families over these past 3/4 years and absolutely love it. Every child is their own unique being. It's wonderful seeing them grow up as the years go by into such characters. I have no issue with getting active with the kids playing outdoors and board games etc as I'm just a big kid as well. I have a smidge of OCD so don't hesitate to ask me to do the dishes or tidy up the play room, or even clean your pantry. The only thing I don't do is ironing. I also enjoy preparing dinners and can even prepare school lunches if need be
