Availability I ask that all requests are made known 48-72 hour ahead of time. That way I can properly prepare myself, and accommodate the needs and wants for you and your family. I do not drive, I ride public transportation, so I will only commute for 45 minutes to 1 hour. I'm willing to travel a distance if you are willing to discuss Uber or Lyft expenses. I'm available 2-3 days out of a week from 9:00am- 6pm ( I'm willing to work earlier if you are close) and Saturdays from 4:00pm-10:00pm. Bookings/Request A phone interview is required for all requests made. During our phone discussion, I want to know important information regarding your child or children ( Kids names, age, interest, allergies/medications, disciplinary actions, daily routine, etc.). I will also share with you my 11 wonderful years caring for youth from Infancy-School age! I will send my resume and references via email after our phone discussion. Orientation After our phone discussion an orientation is required, please note that through Sittercity anyone can make an account. I've been with them for 7 years and I had my share of scammers. So I ask that we set a day and time for us to meet to get an idea of one another's personality, meeting your child or children, and giving me a tour around your home. Payment I charge 20/hourly and one dollar additional child. The only form of payment I will accept is PayPal or Venmo. I will not accept cash or check, I also expect to be paid once I've finished the sitting and kids are calm enough for the transaction to run smoothly. If you are late there is a sub charge of $25 dollars.

I’m calm, reliable, and attentive, with a strong focus on safety, routines, and keeping children happily engaged through age appropriate play, reading, and creative activities. I’m especially comfortable with bedtime routines, multiple children, and maintaining a smooth, peaceful evening. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, with training in child development and early childhood education principles. I value clear communication, respect family preferences, and aim to provide thoughtful, dependable care that feels easy and reassuring for both children and parents.
