Hi There & Welcome to my profile! My name is Irene and I'm 35 years old. I have worked with children of all ages for about 19 years now. I also have several references. I truly enjoy working with kids and getting to know families. I'm also understanding of any specific rules or preferences parents or children have when they are with a babysitter. I also have lots of experience with families of different cultural backgrounds and life situations. I also have my own personal experience as well as professional experience within the adoption and foster care field. I have also worked with children with special needs before. I also prefer stable positions that match with my availability although I'm open to last minute positions as long as I'm available. I'm open to any questions and I hope to continue to meet families and be of help to them!

Irene is friendly, courteous, and respectful. She took good care of my two cats while I was away. She went above and beyond to take in my packages too. I will definitely hire her again in the future.

Irene has been babysitting for us for 2 years now. We use her consistently about every other week and for the occasional date night. Our daughter loves Irene and Irene is more like family now. She is fantastic with our child and very reliable. She will also do occasional house chores if you ask her.

Irene was great with my infant son. I was traveling to Dallas and needed someone to watch my baby. I was very hesitant about leaving him with someone in a city I didn’t know but after interviewing with Irene, I felt confident that he would be fine. And after meeting her, I was sure. He warmed up to her quickly. I even decided to let her watch him another day. That was a major relief for me. Thank you

Horribly late with a ton of implausible excuses during the interview. A time was agreed upon. Then she rescheduled and was still late. Will not hire.

Irene was a tremendous help for my Mini Doodle. It was his first-time boarding overnight outside of our home, so we were careful on choosing a sitter. Irene made the entire process amazingly easy and was always super responsive to check on our pet. Splendid work!

Irene was an excellent caregiver to my 2.5 year old son. She was so patient and understanding when I accidentally fell asleep with my son and wasn’t able to answer the door when she arrived. I am so thankful for her time and care. I have added her to my list of future sitters to contact when in need.

So sweet and understanding as the evening did not go as planned. My little one was in good spirits when I got home. Hopefully she will let us use her again.
