Hello there! I've been babysitting for 15 years now for kids from 0-12. My first job was when I was 12 for a family who lived near me. They had a baby and a 2 year old. Then, they had another baby. And then another! So if 15 year old me could handle those four little ones (and pretty well I might add) then imagine the babysitting rock star I am today! I actually prefer working with multiple young children/babies- there's never a dull moment! Parents will tell you that I am reliable and trustworthy. Having this much experience means your kiddos will be safe. Though I've never had to use it in real life, I know CPR. I'm experienced in first aid as well, though most of this experience comes from my years as a nursing assistant. Anyway, as for the fun stuff, I love doing art projects with Read more kids and teaching them music. I also love playing outside. Really, I can adapt to any hobby your kids have. The TV won't be your kids' babysitter when I'm around! :) I have references available upon your request. Also, I prefer a home without cats as a member of my household is allergic and I don't want to get dander in my clothes and hair!

We were in town for a wedding and needed a reliable, competent sitter for our 13 month old son. Kate to the rescue. She was on time both days, took great care of Jackson, and did a great job. Thanks Kate.
