Hi, I’m Colette (Coco) Dougher! I absolutely love being a sitter because every day with kids is different—whether it’s playing pretend, helping with homework, or calming a fussy baby, I truly enjoy being a supportive and positive part of a child’s day. Babysitting has been one of the most meaningful and fun parts of my life over the last five years. I’ve worked with a wide range of families and cared for children from infancy through the teenage years. I’m comfortable managing busy schedules, helping with school pickups, driving to sports or activities, preparing meals, and handling bedtime routines. I’ve also built strong, lasting relationships with families—many of whom are happy to provide references. In terms of skills and training, I’m a safe and responsible driver with years of experience transporting kids safely. I’m dependable, communicative, and calm under pressure. I also go the extra mile by helping keep things Read more tidy—whether it’s doing light household cleaning or guiding kids to clean up their rooms and take pride in their space. I’m always happy to pitch in and make things easier for parents. I’d love the chance to get to know your family and support your childcare needs!

Colette was wonderful with our kids and was very responsible and punctual. The kids really enjoyed having her last Summer. She was available for pick and drop and helped with activities for my daughter and was able to take them to the pool and tennis camp. I would hire her again.
