I really cannot think of how to say a lot of what I want to say. So heres what I'm trying to say: Hello class! My name is WeiKailing. Today my topic is babysitting. Babysitting is my job. I really enjoy it! My neighborhood has lots of kids. I babysit kids from the ages of 2-12. I am lucky that most of them are well behaved and very nice. With the younger kids I often play games and do what they want to do. With the older ones I often play games or chat with them. Their parents are also very nice. I get paid really well. I love the kids I babysit. Thanks! If anyone can help me set this up, that would be great! And not to be picky, but as my understanding and level of Chinese is somewhat low, simpler vocabulary would be prefered. Thanks in advance!!!!

Hi Kaitlin,

 

I am just a student of Chinese myself, so I can only offer some suggestions and hope some native speakers of Chinese or a Chinese 高手 ("high hand" = expert) can help out.

 

First, "babysitting". From my experience, this is 照顾孩子 zhao4gu hai2zi, which means "take care of children".

 

But the job of babysitting as we have in the US is not a common thing in China, so to make it more culturally appropriate, you should say first 帮助邻居 bang1zhu4 lin2ju1, "help neighbors."

 

Thus we have: "今天我的话题是帮助邻居照顾孩子".

 

I'd better leave it at that!
