Hello, my name is Maria and I am 24 years old. Currently I am a Photography student at Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam. My babysitting experience started when I was 14 and my niece was born. Since she was an infant I was allowed to take care of herself couple of hours a day, feeding her, changing her diaper and take her on walks. Because I was living with my sister, I took care of my niece for 8 years. Next to this I was babysitting once in a while for my neighbors' children, mostly toddlers. When I was 18, I was tutoring a 7 year old boy. I was teaching him English and help with his homework. At age 20 I moved to the Netherlands to become an Au Pair. I was taking care of a 9 year old boy and 11 year old girl. I was preparing lunch and dinner for them, take them to their play dates and sports club. I would like to continue my babysitting journey because I love children and it feels an easy and natural activity for me. I get along very well with kids all age, I like to play games with them or engage in some creative project like crafting and painting. I am a patient, calm and responsible person by nature and I think this makes me a great babysitter.
