Currently I’m available for occasional, date nights & daytime . I have a permanent Saturday/Sunday position (4 years so far) for a 6 year old, 2 toddlers & an infant. This family found me through SitterCity. I am experienced with newborn, toddlers & school age children. I am always open to occasional sitting so that the family & I can get acquainted. I really like reading & playing & visits to the library. I previously finished a job with a Westlake family of 3 boys for 4 years when they aged to self care. (Palmer reference available upon request). A previous position entailed caring for 2 adopted girls who were 4 & 5. I worked for them for 4 years & still see the girls occasionally. (Corsaro reference available upon request). Formula, park & library visits, preparing meals for the whole family or just the kids & getting them to eat & into bed happy are all part of my experience. I love to help with homework or just teach younger children the basics. I teach children how to cook or bake when appropriate - or just decorating the finished cupcakes! (@donnathebaker on Instagram) I am happy to help with light housework tasks & laundry as needed. I love all pets but am allergic to cats.

I recently hired Donna to watch my 3 kids a few days a week. She has been wonderful. I have a very crazy schedule and she is super accommodating, and very punctual, which is a huge thing for me! Not to mention she is great with the kids. I love her enthusiasm and energy! My very picky almost 2 year old has taken to her very fast and my older kids enjoy spending time with her. She not only takes care of the kids but she engages them in activities. In fact, she is baking cupcakes with my 8 year old today! I cant wait to get home! lol. And the other day she organized my pantry!!! What more could you ask for! We are super pleased with Donna! She has really been a blessing to our family! And if you want her, you might have to fight me for her!

Hi families! I’m Carolyn Walker — a mom, early childhood therapist, and caregiver who truly loves helping little ones grow. Parenthood has been one of the greatest joys of my life, and I’m so grateful to share it with my wonderful husband and our spirited three-year-old son. Being a mother has only strengthened what I’ve spent the last ten years doing professionally: supporting children’s emotional, social, and behavioral development. As an early childhood therapist specializing in behavioral therapy and autism support, I understand how uniquely and beautifully each child learns and grows. My approach is rooted in patience, empathy, and meeting children exactly where they are. Whether you need reliable babysitting, consistent nanny support, or an extra set of hands during busy moments, I bring my therapeutic background directly into your home by creating: ✨ Safe, nurturing, and consistent routines ✨ Hands-on, age-appropriate activities ✨ Calm, supportive guidance during challenging moments ✨ Environments filled with joy, play, and trust I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your child’s world. My goal is to make your little one feel supported, engaged, and genuinely cared for whether I’m hosting them in my home or caring for them in yours. I’m excited to partner with families who want not just a sitter, but someone who understands child development, loves children wholeheartedly, and will cheer your little one on every step of the way.

Carolyn was fantastic! She was quick to respond and a great communicator. She was on time and made me feel confident that our baby was in good hands. Carolyn sent me pictures and updates throughout the evening. We used her for a onetime, special occasion and would love to work with her again. I loved her vibe and energy and would recommend her to anyone. Thank you for keeping my baby safe and happy!

We absolutely love Lauren. She has been a wonderful caregiver for our toddlers and baby. Not only is she knowledgeable about child development, but she’s also so creative with activities. Every time she watches the kids, they are doing fun, engaging things that keep them excited and happy. She also helps out around the house, tidying up after the kids and even helping with meal prep, which is such a huge help for us. Lauren is reliable, kind, and our kids adore her. We feel so lucky to have found her!

Robin is amazing. She's on time and always prepared. I wish we could keep her forever. Her word really is her bond. She cooked dinner every night for the family (evening babysitting), and she always brought crafts and activities to do with the children. I would hire her again in a second.
