Essay

Babysitting can be very challenging at times. I babysit my little brother and I use to works at a daycare during summer. Some challenges you face are when the kids/toddlers throw tantrums, when they're fussy, where they're hungry but they don't want to eat. Kids are hard to work with but you have to find a way around to get them to work with you and obey what you tell them you want from them. Babysitting my baby brother is different than babysitting other kids. When I babysit my brother I can avoid more things than babysitting other kids. Babysitting other kids is more difficult because you have to be more gentle and caution with these kids. When my brother throws tantrums I can just avoid him and walk away until he gets over it, but when the kids at the daycare throw tantrums I have to put them on timeout and I have to talk to them and I have to remind them how to behave.
