My first job ever.

My first job ever was when I was 15.  I was a nanny for 3 children during the summer.  This was truely an eye opening experience for me.  The older children were 8 & 7 and the youngest was 10 months old. This was my first time using cloth diapers and I was SCARED to death I would poke the baby.  I even called my mom in tears because I was so freaked out.  Eventually I got used to it and we had a great summer.  It even shapped some of my thoughts on parenting and what type of parent I wanted to be when I grew up.  It also made me very thankful that cloth diapers came with velcro by the time my son was born.
