A little bit about us
Have 3 children. All respectful & well behaved. My daughter karma is 14, My son karsen is 10 and miss braelynn is 5. Karma gets home from school 5 pm (rainy/snow days she’ll need picked up, it’s a 3 minute drive) karsen gets home at 245, he’ll just need to be reminded to do his chores &make sure he’s in bed on time. Braelynn is the focus. A little bit about her, braelynn is energetic, loves to play, be outside, coloring and playing, her new thing is paw patrol games. But Miss brae has what they think is a mild case of cdg syndrome, (please do your research if your serious) in the past she’s had paralysis episodes, This only last a minute or two, they are painless, and she is conscious. She also has had seizures, shes had 3 in the last 2 years. The last one was July of 2021 and it almost took her life. She had been on a medication to control all of this but she has recently been taken off July of this year. She has not had any of these episodes since so we’re hopefully she won’t but always need to be prepared. Soooo! Brae gets over-sensitized, loud noises are to much for her she has little ear muffs she likes to wear! She is also very clumsy at times, needs help with climb pretty much anything. There are some food she can’t have a lot of (high potassium ect) these food won’t be in the house or there will be a list. Some of the nights I’ll need you to make dinner, if I haven’t (karma usually will but I’d prefer her to not have to) If this sounds like something you could enjoy helping out with, capable of handling and have experience please reach out (first aid & introduction online class to adolescents seizure care) . Braelynn is so sweet, funny and loving! She just needs some extra attention. Im scared to place her in daycare, karma has helped so much & loves to, but I’d like her to be 14. 3 times during the week from 4 to when brae is sleeping, karma can take it from there (Alexa devices will trigger if she wakes. Start times will vary 330/ 530at latest

Little one just turned two, M-F hours roughly 8 A or 9 A to 6 P. Someone who is kind, patient and interactive to encourage child to play and interact and progress developmentally is important. Experience is a must. I am going back to work with busy hours so there may be some variation.

A little bit about us
I am looking for a sitter for my 3 year old son. I currently need Tues-Friday 8:30-5:00 PM. I work from home and plan to be mostly in the house, and I'm also willing to work with a provider who provides care from their home.
He is partially potty trained so will need some assistance getting fully there, and is passionate in everything he does and feels. We have had a few transitions in his care lately, so I am looking for something that is permanent and consistent.
