Posted by Kevin A. on 7/26/2025

  • $25.00 per hour

My wife moved to Arizona about a year ago, and we are finally getting around to looking for a sitter for monthly date nights.

Looking for an individual who feels comfortable with special needs children. Needs to be willing to talk about Mario and Sonic and likes story telling. Also, needs the ability to handle the occasional emotional overwhelm.

Responsibilities will be limited to keeping him safe and healthy, and food will be provided.

Date “nights” (could be as early as 10 am) will be once a month on Saturday or Sundays for at least 4 hours. Occasionally we will request an overnighter, for which we can negotiate an overnight rate. Our family currently lives in a 2 bedroom apartment next to the SanTan Valley mall in Gilbert. We also have a cat that will want to play and sit on your lap.

Pay will be $20-30 an hour depending on experience. A 10-15 minute phone interview will be required, followed by a paid in person interview.
