Hey, my name is Jamenna and im 16 years old and I been looking for jobs to do to gain money for summer and my baby I’m having on the way soon . If anyone need any help , i will be more than happy to help . Thank you very much
Im 16 years old, Ive been watching kids since I was younger so I didn’t really have a childhood due to always taking care of others and other personal issues ofc, I watched kids when I was 10 and in the shelter with my mom, I didnt know the kids but I wanted to help and the parents always said I was a huge help, my first time getting paid for babysitting I was in 8th grade maybe abt 12 or 13 and the mom and me had a great bond along with her two kids. I just hope to babysit more and not get pushed away because of my age because I really am responsible and trustworthy and I can create an amazing bond with your kid if your willing to let me
