I’m a local small business owner looking for occasional weeknight and weekend babysitting opportunities. I’ve been a child care provider since my very first babysitting job back in 1985. My experience is extensive, including mom’s helper and child care for a family of 9, full-time and weekend-stay nanny and lead caregiver for an after-school program. I enjoy kids of all ages and am especially good with newborns, babies and toddlers. I’m more than happy to provide further information about myself as well as references, in addition to the following recommendation from a current family I care for: “I have known Katie since my first son, now 5, was born. She started as a date night babysitter but has grown to feel like another member of our family. A seasoned caregiver, I’ve seen Katie interact wonderfully with kids of all ages—it’s clear that she truly loves children. Kind and nurturing, she Read more has an especially natural touch with our youngest son, who is 7 months. As busy parents, it has been wonderful to have someone like Katie to help us care for both of our boys. Not only is she dependable and flexible, she goes above and beyond to do errands and household tasks, like laundry, dishes, tidying, etc. We’ve even entrusted her with a key to our house. She has a knack for knowing just what a mom needs and consistently sends updates/texts. Katie is also super creative. I’m often pleased to come home to a new project or hear about a unique activity she has come up with to keep my kids happy and occupied. I highly recommend Katie for any babysitting job.“
