I love their imagination, their spark, their creativity. I love seeing what they can teach me as well as what I can teach them. I love how kids see the world. I love seeing what they see and hearing why they hear. I love getting down and dirty with the kids. For example: you would most likely see me smiling and laughing soaking wet because I was running around with the kids in the sprinklers, paint all over myself because we was painting, flour and other food ingredients in my hair and on my clothes because we was baking or cooking together, or feathers and other arts and crafts items in my hair or all over me because we decided to do arts and crafts. And I love every minute of it. I am such a happy person and that why you would most likely see me smiling and laughing. I love to read, write, draw and sing. I love to cook and bake. I also love to try new things as well as explore. I love to play games. From video games to broad games to imagination games. I love to skate and swim as well. On my downtime, if I am not spending time with my family then I out and about NYC. I love spending time with my nieces, nephews and god-children. I usually would set up some play dates with some of my friends and their kids and we would do different things with them such as arts and crafts. We would also take them to different places around NY (ex: the library, the museum, fro-yo, Luna Park, the park, the pool, the beach). I am available to start asap. I am available to babysit on the weekends, holidays, date nights, on-call, overnight, vacations and sick days. I am able to run errands, as well as clean and do laundry. I am a quick learner so I am able to learn anything you feel I should or need to know. I am very organized so I pay attention to the little details as well as the big ones. As for being late, I am always getting where I need to early. I don't smoke or drink.      Valid Driver's License: No  Has a Vehicle: No  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: American  Background Check: Willing to obtain  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   10 years experience, 3 references I started babysitting when I was 14 years old.
