Hi! We’re looking for a warm, reliable babysitter for occasional date nights (1–2 evenings a month) for our 4-year-old son.

I’m a stay-at-home mom, so he’s very attached to me and does best with gentle, patient caregivers. We’re hoping to find someone calm and confident who can help him feel comfortable while we’re out.

We’d love to start with a short “meet and play” visit while I’m home, and then gradually work up to a few hours in the evening (including bedtime routine). Must be comfortable around dogs. We have one German shepherd who will be in the house but you will not be expected to care for. He is very friendly.
