I have two sons. They love a great adventure. We also have three dogs and a Beardie. We are looking for a person who can match their energy and help with pets. There are times when I may need more support with after evening care, and some where it’s just pet help.

A little bit about us…

Hi! I’m looking for a nanny/babysitter on Mondays from 9:30am-4pm(ish) for my 14 month old son. He’s a sweet, curious and active little guy that loves to have fun! We are looking for someone that can keep him busy, give him snuggles and care for him while both my husband and I work from home. Beyond having fun, responsibilities include feeding him lunch and snacks and putting him down for a nap. The only cleaning required is just tidying up after yourself. We will likely be home working from the office most of the time, but may step out occasionally. Our old babysitter found a full time job. We were paying her $15/hr but are willing to negotiate for the right person. Looking forward to meeting you!
