I started babysitting when I was10 but having been a Mom with a Son that's 29 married and a POLICE OFFICER. And Daughter that's 25 and is a recruiter for a Tech. Company and just promoted to Phoenix,AZ. I think I did a good job as a mommy and it's my desire to give tired Mom's & Dad's a chance to take break whether it's for a night, day or much needed weekend away to rekindle the romance and just relax !!!!!! I still remember those days it's the hardest job in the world a job that never ends I might add. And my Son is going try starting his own family so I'm going to be getting ready to be a " young" 😉 Grandma. I used to own a pre-school . I also worked with a friend that owned her pre-school. I would prepare lessons and enjoyed being Read more with kids teaching them new things and watching there eyes light up when they did and we'd both get excited and do the "happy dance" Lol. I will carefully take care of your precious children and treated them as if they were my own and have fun with them until you get home. I'd rather help you around the house while there napping. My desire is to take some of the weight off your shoulders not to be a school teacher. I've worked in the medical field since the mid 90's first as a physical therapist aide then I went to school to become a phlebotomist and I was also trained on the job as a medical assistant. I am going to be updating my CPR the next class that comes open but I obviously know how. I was born and raised in Hood River and my family has had a business here for 35 years. I have a great reputation and I have many personal references.

We were a little nervous about finding a sitter out of state, but Jamie was amazing! She met us the day we got into town, recommended a great park for our little boy to unwind at, and brought us apples from her tree! She was so nice, accommodating, and wrote out a list of all her local favorite places to go - she was like a tour guide in addition to a sitter! On the night she watched our little boy, she came early to accommodate a change in our schedule, cleaned up while we were gone, and sent updates and pictures all evening. She was such a great find in Hood River and I am so glad we found her!
