Looking for a full time sitter? Part time sitter? As needed sitter? Someone who will genuinely care for your kid’s and engage with them? Look no further. I have been babysitting since my daughter was 9 months old, she’ll be 13 next month! I have a family I babysit full time for that has been with me for almost 2 years. We color, practice shapes, numbers, alphabet, and love doing crafts. I have a fully fenced in back yard with a trampoline. Lots of outdoor toys for the summer as well. I also have a full finished basement complete with lots of indoor toys for kid’s to keep them busy and having fun. My house is pet friendly, as I have 2 dogs (13 year old border collie and 3 year old German Shepherd) both big babies who love kids! We also have a cat, that mostly hides or stands Read more at the stairs and observes the kids. I will provide meals for the kids or you’re welcome to provide your own as well. I have lots of references and can even help with e learning. My own kid’s are 7 and almost 13 and doing school from home through e learning. Please feel free to reach out should you like to talk more or meet in person! I look forward to hearing from you.
