Answer:

Ensuring Child Safety -- This is the most important responsibility, and it's always required. That's why it's number one! Make sure children are safe at home and while 'out and about. Parents expect that children will be under the watchful eye of the sitter at all times. Which gives you and opportunity to gain trust.

Decision – making skills. While taking care of children there are going to be many situations where the child care worker must act quickly and make an appropriate judgment to fix the problem.

If overnight -- You may need to prepare or order dinner, help children with homework, run the bedtime routine which may include a bath, brushing their teeth, putting on their pajamas, and reading a bedtime story. Once the children are asleep, you can tidy up a bit then have some downtime

Hope this helps

Bye
