We have two high-energy, fun loving boys, age 5 and 7 that periodically need care. Mostly, we need sitters for evening meetings that last from 2-5 hours, but there may be other times as well. Aside from taking great care of our boys, we need someone who is highly accountable and flexible. We have engagements that we absolutely cannot be late or cancel, so we have to trust that the sitter we hire will not be late or cancel either. On the flip side, our plans can change at the last minute and it's out of our control . In those cases, we may end up not needing a babysitter and will need to cut the job short or cancel. (This is rare). We'll need someone who will enjoy reading bedtime stories and tucking the boys in to bed. After they're in bed, we want someone who is willing to tidy up.
