If you have any other Child Care Experience we should know of, please describe them
They learned to read with greater agility, they expanded their vocabulary and learned new manners. They did not like vegetables very much and after so much insistence and different dishes ended up accepting them. They were children who ate many sweets, and in my house, they understood that it was not good to eat so much of that, that it was better a fruit or gelatin. We slept when it was necessary for them to stay home; sometimes we go to amusement parks, museums and even the super market.
This experience was very good, I knew what tolerance was with children and how important it is to teach them good things because they absorb everything you teach them. Now they attend soccer classes in the afternoons so it was no longer necessary to take care of them, but I keep in touch with them and I know they are still extraordinary children.
Later, when I finished my studies, I started working for a company, and took care of two little brothers in the afternoons. Andrea 2 years and Leo 3. It was not easy, I always managed to keep them busy because sometimes they missed their parents and it was inevitable that they would cry. However, I found the way to entertain them and sometimes they wanted to stay with me even though their parents were waiting for them. They learned many games, songs and magic tricks; at dinnertime, we played games so that everything could be finished. Andrea left the diaper and learned to tell when to go to the bathroom. Leo attended school, and always made sure he practiced the words in English. They were very intelligent and loving children. I will always carry them in my heart.
Even though I am not in charge of children now, I take care of my nephews when necessary. They have been my greatest learning, watching them grow has been the most beautiful thing I have ever witnessed. Everyone is different, everyone has different tastes and being of different ages it is always necessary to create new ways to spend time with them. The biggest challenge is to prepare the food. Not everyone likes the same things and it is not easy to try nutritious things, so that has been the greatest achievement, to learn to eat new things. They spend many hours in my house so it is inevitable not to be accustomed to them, their laughter, their cries and their company.
