Love children with all my heart. I will get down on all fours and play with your child. I will wear them down until they crash out! I come ready to have fun! I recently moved here from Virginia where I was an Active Duty sailor in the Navy and spent much of my free time babysitting for military families. (I do still have access to any military bases and hospitals) When it comes to watching kids, it is not just a job to me, it is something I absolutely love doing! I love taking kids out to fun locations (with parents permission), such as parks, kids events, kid-oriented play places, and more. I have been babysitting for over 8 years now, and love being able to create bonds with kids. In the past I worked at a baby store (which was my favorite job), so I have a wide Read more knowledge of baby products and have an understanding for different needs for both child and parent. Information for You: I own a car (four door, safe, car seat ready) Non-smoker, Non-drinker Willing to babysit multiple kids (from one or multiple couples) Willing to pick up kids from daycare/school Take kids to fairs, events, birthday parties, sports practice, zoo etc. Can stay overnight (recently did an entire weekend sitting while parents went out of state) Maintain childs routine (potty training, bed time, bath time, food schedule) Flexible for last minute requests Willing to adjust price to accommodate parents Overall have fun with the kids! I am truly understanding of parents and willing to work with last minute plans. I have also volunteered in the past at many kid events, including those oriented towards children with special needs. So I am understanding towards those children who may need special attention. If you have any questions or concerns don't hesitate to ask. I am open and willing to address any that you may come across. (Fast response time. Account sends emails to my phone. ) Smile, a child is a joy! Sometimes you need a break. Let me step in for a bit. Go out for a date night. Have a little fun. I will even text you updates and send you pictures of your child to put your mind at ease. You will come home to a cleaner house, a sleeping child, and a wonderful memory of your night off.
