I started babysitting when I was 12 for a family friend and from there my babysitting job took off. One thing I love about being able to babysit is watching all the little milestones happen. I was babysitting for the original family until I ended up moving away from home and being able to help the kids grow was incredible. I watched one of the children go from sitting in a bumbo (an infants chair), to running around outside during the summer, to helping with a class project. For me its all the little things being with kids that make the job worth it!
