I am now available most days, nights or overnights! Either full (5 days/nights) or part time (1,2, or 3 days/nights) per week. I am used to working long hours, as most of my jobs have been for families within the medical community. In the meantime, I am also available for evening, your date nights, or overnights should you need a weekend away. Whatever your schedule is, please ask me, I may be able to help you, or work something out on a temporary basis. I graduated from C.E.R.T. (community emergency response team) Academy, taught by San Diego Fire-Rescue Dept. I am happy to be of service to my community in case of a disaster or terrorist attack. I have all three CPR certificates for infant, child, and adult. My first aid training exceeds that of the general public. I love babies/kids of all ages and they love me! I appreciate the hard work and sacrifice of our military families and I give military family discounts! If your child has any special needs, such as medical or behavioral, I may charge a little more. You may contact me by text message or calling. Please leave a message with your name, number, area you live in, and the times and date you are looking for a sitter and I will be happy to return your call as soon as I am able. Thank you!

I was a licensed day care provider for over 20 years. I am Covid vaccinated! Now that my own 3 children are grown I enjoy doing childcare/babysitting in other's homes. I studied child development in college. Children and families are my passion and I really enjoy this line of work. My hobbies include tennis, hiking, running half marathons and boating. I have lots of experience and regularly care for infants. I can guarantee you that your children will be loved and receive excellent care when I am with them. I enjoy interacting with the children I watch. I like to read to them, play games, sing songs ect. I believe it is very important for parents to be able to enjoy their time away from their children knowing that their children are safe, having fun and well cared for. I am fun, flexible and ready to help!
