I first started on sitter city in 2008. It did not take long to meet and care for the children of several families. Many of the relationships were long term so I became inactive on the site. My last family moved just before Covid took hold. I had just updated my child infant CPR and first aid as I intended to start looking again. That didn’t happen because of Covid so I’m starting again now. I did raise 6 children of my own, worked as a nanny for 10 years and have been actively babysitting for Sittercity families for 10 years. I’m looking for evening sitting opportunities for date nights or class nights. I recently have had the opportunity to care for children for 1-3 days while parents have a gap between nanny’s or are visiting or in town for work. I am enjoying those opportunities and am happy when they fit into my schedule. I limit the parameters of my searches so feel free to share your job with me if you think we might be a good fit.

Hi I'm Ashley! I work full time and am missing the fun of caring for kids! Coming from a large family with 21 first cousins I have a lot of experience with kids and babies of all ages! I also have experience with kids with special needs! I have experience traveling with families and watching kids while families are here visiting Minnesota and off their routines! I am an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and am a CPR instructor (and certified!). Only available for one-time or occasional jobs that fit with my current work schedule, which is changing every week!

As a new mother it made me remember how much I love children and the joy they can bring. I grew up babysitting the neighborhood children, to helping take on my two younger siblings almost full time by the time I was 15. I have about 15+ years of babysitting under my belt, but this would be a first at professional babysitting and nannying. I love arts and crafts and even started my own business selling my creations to those that shared the same interests my pieces were inspired by. Whether it be going for a walk, playing games, or reading a book, all things can be so much better when you have children to enjoy it with. Your kids might ask you for flips and to spin in circles after being watched by me. For that I apologize in advance but it's so much fun for kids I can't help but do it when asked. If you have any questions feel free to message me and I will respond as soon as I can. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
