I am looking for an exceptional, high-energy sitter to pick up my 9-year-old daughter from school and keep her safe, stimulated, and entertained until I get home around 5pm. I have a teenaged son who is also around, but you wouldn't be responsible for him.

Screen-free, active, and engaging activities required. I'm looking for someone who loves being around kids and will plan creative activities and outdoor adventures.

My daughter will likely have a school friend the same age with her some afternoons. We live on the UWS, so it's essential that our sitter either lives or works close enough that pickup won't be problematic--ideally in Manhattan.
