A little bit about us…

I would like to find child-care on an as-needed basis for when I have dinners or meetings that are outside the regular hours of her day-care. These may include 530pm onwards during the week, or sometimes on weekends. My 3.5 year old is very fun and enjoys playing with toys, being curious, and reading. Some light meals would be helpful too, and no TV-watching please. Pick-up from school would be a bonus but not required. In school she speaks Spanish as well!
