The Sanders Family

A little bit about us

Hello! We are a busy family looking for some help with our kiddos. We have three boys, ages 2, 6 and 7. My husband works Monday-Friday 8am-5pm and I work Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays 8am-4pm. Right now we need someone for after school care on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Our current sitter just gave us a one week notice due to needing to take care of a family member. So we will need someone starting on April 6th, 2026. During the school year we need someone to meet our older boys at the bus stop near our home at 3pm then go pick up the youngest at daycare (5 miles away). I am usually home by 4:15pm. We will also be needing care all day on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the summer, school breaks and snow days. It would also be great if there was flexibility for sick days.

We are open to a recurring babysitter but are also open to the idea of a live-in nanny. We have a pretty big home in a safe neighborhood. We have a loft area with a private bathroom that we would be willing to offer childcare and light housekeeping in exchange for rent. We are open to the idea of a college student, a single mom with a young kiddo or even a trustworthy couple.

An interview at our home and a contract would be required.

Must have a drivers license and reliable transportation with insurance. Must be okay with dogs (we have two really friendly but big dogs) and cats (we have two). Preferably non-smoker.
