A little bit about us

I have a 5-year-old girl who is super sweet, but hyperactive. She has special needs, so she would need individualized care especially while I am away at work. I work Mon-Fri from 9-5; however, my job is a 2-hour commute there and back. We currently live with my parents but I still need someone who can watch after her especially when they go out of town.

A little bit about us

I'm a massage therapist at Verde Holistic Wellness Studio, I work 3 days a week. Monday, Friday 4p-8p and Saturday 1p-6p. I need someone for these during these times must be able to come to my home I don't have transportation I usually leave out an hour or so before so I'm not late. My daughter is 7 and very playful and active loves to talk she does like movies and books she is still learning how to read and do math,, she is alittle behind in school due to schools closing the first time then I just homeschooled her now since we just moved so now I'm looking to put her back in school. So any lessons to help teach her if you want is fine while you're here babysitting. You may babysit at my house or pick up and drop off if more reasonable. Thank you.
