Parents NEED Breaks! Schedules get full and there's a lot to juggle. Having safe, skilled childcare when you have to work is a necessity and you know you need a date night soon!!!! I have many years of experience caring for children and I also am a pediatric Occupational Therapist. I am currently not practicing because I am a homeschool mom of 3 rambunctious ones of my own!! (This includes twins so if you have twins, I'm your lady!) I am frequently available to provide childcare evenings and weekends, as well as overnights. Daytime availability is variable, as it needs to include my kids (sometimes, but not always), so let's talk about what you need! I am comfortable with all ages and levels of needs. Very comfortable with children with physical disabilities, autism and have experience and/or knowledge about quite a few medical conditions. Willing to learn anything needed to Read more care for your kids! I have a lot of experience caring for children at weddings, reunions and other special events. Coming from out of town and need a safe, reliable caregiver (with references)? contact me! When I care for your children they have my full attention! I am comfortable with following your routine and style of discipline and can manage baths, bedtime routines, meal prep, household chores, etc. My rates are flexible! My hourly rate is 15-20 per hour, depending on the number of children and level of responsibility. Also totally flexible about pay and will consider jobs with a flat rate for a day or a little less per hour than listed above.
