I am a former teacher with 25+ years of experience in early childhood education in NY. After retiring, my husband and I relocated to the valley and love it here. I also did private babysitting at a 4 star hotel in the Adirondacks of NY. I have three grandsons that have been a great way to keep active and current but still have the desire to help young families with childcare needs. I would love to chat with you about my experience and see if I can assist you with your needs!

Lisa was an outstanding sitter for us during our recent visit to Palm Springs. We were there for a week, and she sat for us during 3 different times during that week. We have a 2-year old and 4-year old. She had a great temperament with them, established immediate rapport, consulted with us about expectations, and checked in frequently about how things were going. She brought over toys that the kids loved and we were able to keep in the house during our week vacation, an amazing godsend since Airbnbs typically do not come with a lot of toys. She enabled us to get a few minutes away for some hikes, coffee, and a birthday dinner. Thanks, Lisa!

Lisa babysat for our 10 month old while we attended a wedding. She was so kind. It was clear she had extensive experience caring for children and even brought extra toys since she knew we were visiting from out of town. I would definitely have her sit for us if we are in the area again. We love Lisa!
