About Skylar
Experience: 2 yrs
Coming from a family of eight, I absolutely love kids, and it makes me happy to be able care for others. I've only had an official babysitting job for two years, but coming from a family of six children, I have been "unofficially" taking care of children on and off for as long as I can remember. The ages I enjoy taking care of the most are infants and toddlers, but I'm also comfortable with boys and girls up to age 12. I also love pets, especially dogs. I have a lot of experience with volunteer work as well. I love to visit the elderly in nursing homes, help out at daycare centers, and lead games and sports at camps. I've also helped with house cleaning at a women's shelter. I don't have a philosophy for babysitting, but I do think that it is very important to earn the respect of the children, and to give that respect in return. But at the same time, it's impossible for me to not have fun with kids. It's important to me that I carefully balance my roles as caregiver and friend.

Skylar babysat for our 3 elementary school aged children for about 3 years. Skylar is considerate, helpful, kind, and willing to implement your rules. Our children would look forward to the times that Skylar was scheduled to babysit. I have 2 boys and a girl. They each very much enjoyed being cared for by her, and definitely benefited from the experience. Skylar displayed love and fairness for our children. She would even bring over her own games to play with them. Skylar was also a leader in the girls club that my daughter joined. My daughter looked up to Skylar and even wrote an essay about her when she was in 8th grade. I would recommend Skylar as a caregiver with no hesitation.
