Hi! I’m looking for a reliable babysitter in the Riverview/Tampa area for occasional evenings.

We have a 12-year-old who’s pretty independent, but I’m really hoping to find someone who will actually engage with her—play games, hang out, and keep things fun (not just supervise or default to screens). Also arrange/warm up basic meals for her.

Most needs would be occasional nights, including some later weeknights and weekends.

We also have two cats at home—very easy to manage with mostly automated setups (litter robot, etc.), so it’s more just being comfortable around pets than active care.

If you’re experienced with this age group and enjoy being interactive with kids, I’d love to connect!
