Hi there! My name is Mickey I am 20 years old I am located in Dyke (just north of Cville!)

We've used Mickey's babysitting services for our 4 year old daughter while our 13 year old son was home as well (doing mostly his own thing). My daughter absolutely loved Mickey and has asked multiple times when she is coming back! Unfortunately, we haven't had a chance yet for another date night, but when we have another one, Mickey will be the one we will call. Mickey was very kind, she actively played with my daughter, was very engaging and took great care of her. She cooked an easy dinner for both our kids and she was very responsive to our messages and calls beforehand and during the evening. We would highly recommend Mickey to everyone who needs a babysitter that loves to hang out with your children and has great responsibility!

Mickey has been sitting for our 4yr old toddler for the past several months and we truly adore them. They are engaging and kind and has nurtured a sweet and caring relationship with our little. They are not only a great play friend for our toddler but they are very responsive and responsibly reliable. We recommend Mickey to everyone we know and anyone looking for not only a sitter but a gentle and thoughtful playmate.
