Hi! I am a child and adolescent therapist looking to supplement my income by providing occasional babysitting services. I have been a therapist for 8 years, but prior to that I worked with young people as a camp counselor, baby sitter, and nanny. I have also helped to care for my younger cousins since early high school. I have experience working with children with various needs, including low vision, Autism, and ADHD. Being with kids has always come easy for me and I’m hopeful that with my experience I can provide peace of mind to parents who might need some time away.

Courtney babysat our infant daughter at our hotel while we attended a black-tie wedding. She was very responsive (I heard from her within an hour of reaching out after a second sitter cancelled with late notice), prompt and got right down to playing with our little girl when she arrived. She even sent us picture updates. When we returned, our daughter was awake and cheerful (having napped). For out-of-towners, we couldn't have hoped for a better experience!
