Hello, my name is Tina. I am a wife and mother of 2 adult children (20 & 24 YO). I work full time as a Paralegal. My home consists of 4 people, myself, my husband and 2 adult children. We have 2 small dogs, Oreo and Milo. Oreo is older, a bit shy and prefers to be left alone. Milo is the complete opposite, he loves attention and wants to be snuggled. I started my first babysitting job when I was 10 YO, before I knew it, I was babysitting every kid on the block. Not to mention, I am the cool Aunt with 8 nephews and have supplied many hours of free babysitting for them. I have over 20 years of experience with children (including children with special needs (ADD, ADHD, ODD, emotional/behavioral problems and Autism). I'm pretty much available for your "Date Night" (Friday & Saturday) An occasional Read more evening (Monday through Thursday) Overnight care available for an additional fee. I would prefer watching your child in my smoke-free home. I have a 3 BR home with plenty of room. We have a large backyard. We live in a culdesac so there is not too much traffic.
