South Slope family looking for a warm, reliable date-night sitter, usually a weekend evening or two a month.

Our son is 4 and a lot of fun. He draws constantly, is deep in a Lego moment, makes up songs on his guitar, and will hand you a stack of books expecting all of them read, in a very specific order. Easy to engage, but he does test limits, so we want someone playful who can also hold a boundary kindly.

He'll have eaten before you arrive, so no cooking needed - just a few hours of play and then bed.

Phone or video call first, then a paid few-hour visit during the day so you two can actually hang out and get to know each other.

Requirements: CPR certification, experience with toddler/preschool age, references, reliable schedule. Compensation reflects experience.
