I retired from a long professional career and have now moved back to the east side Cleveland area. I love children and as I don’t have any grandchildren, I’d love to take care of yours! I especially love caring for very young babies. I’m available for occasional or weekly short term babysitting opportunities, date nights or maybe as a back up for sick child care or cancellations. Will also consider short term (2-3 weeks at longest) full time for unusual circumstances, maybe you have a newborn, are expecting a baby and need some help, have a sick child who cannot attend daycare, or just lost your caregiver or have some other short term immediate need. I prefer to work with children ages 5 years or younger, and I especially love caring for newborns and very young babies and toddlers, maximum 2 children. I am sensitive to any allergies or special Read more needs and will always do my best to meet your child’s needs and respect your wishes and house rules. I have experience working with special needs children. I will provide an enriching and loving environment for your children in accordance with your wishes and preferences. My rates start at $20/hour, paid weekly. I do not do housework of any kind but will straighten up kitchen after meals, time permitting. Minimum of 3 hours and reasonably close to my home in Lyndhurst. I have excellent references and am currently sitting for 2 young children, their parents are both doctors and they work different shifts. I have a degree in accounting, am a CPA and have a Federal top secret security clearance. For many years I worked in social services with school age children and often volunteered as a reading and math tutor. I am also a substitute teacher PS - 12 in several local school districts. I have plenty of references. I look forward to meeting your family and caring for your precious babies!

Victoria was great with my 4 month old! She cared for her during the day a few times while I was at work, and I felt comfortable that my daughter was being well cared for. Victoria swaddled her and rocked her to sleep, fed her with pumped breast milk, and played with her. I would definitely book her again.

Victoria was incredibly flexible on fitting in around changes in my schedule. She reached out the day before to check about allergies and any special requests, arrived a few minutes early and offered to stay late if needed. The kids loved her too.

Victoria was wonderful with our 2 year old. She was warm and fun, took him on walks and to the park, and even sent a couple updates. We would definitely have her back!
