My kids are ages 5, 7 (in July), 9 &10. They have never been babysat by non family. My mom recently passed unexpectedly and she was their sitter. They are still grieving but we are taking it one day at a time and keeping her memories close.
My 2 oldest have IEPs. They will be attending summer school and need to get to and from the bus stop. My youngest may need help with lunch or opening a snack but for their ages they are pretty self sufficient.
I work 1st shift and therefore have to be clocked in by 6:30. I need someone committed to early mornings.
