Meet Kirby

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Hi there! I'm Kirby and I have taught and mentored kids through teaching tennis for over 15 years. I have always adored working with kids and even used to be a camp director, where I was responsible for 150 children every day. Because of this, I'm comfortable with looking after just one child, or many. I have experience with all ages, although I worked with kids ages 3-16 the most. As a babysitter, I am creative, organized, punctual, and well planned. I love reading stories, participating with your child in what they like to do best, outdoor activities, making crafts, cooking or baking together, and will even help out with some light housekeeping. I hope that I may be the right fit for your family, and we may get to talk further.

Kirby is such a star babysitter. She was kind and engaged with my daughter in a very natural and friendly way. My daughter really liked spending time with her!

My son immediately warmed up to Kirby the minute she came in. She was punctual, really pleasant and engaging. After her visit, my son declared that he has made a new friend. We would definitely have Kirby babysit again!
