We seek a reliable babysitter for our two children, ages toddler and preschool. We need help between Tuesday, August 26, 2025 to September 4, 2025 (some full and some half-days), though we will also have plenty opportunities for babysitting throughout the year, if of interest to the sitter. The babysitter will care for our children, ensuring their safety and well-being, engaging them in age-appropriate activities, and preparing simple meals. The role requires a caregiver who is comfortable with pets, as we have one dog who is friendly though jumpy on first meeting. Patience, creativity, and good communication skills are important. Prior experience with young children is required.
