Formerly a Girl Scout counselor and AVID tutor, I took some time off from childcare to be a flight attendant then a server, but joint issues have brought me back to my first love. Up til September, I was caring for two 3-year-old boys and a 6-year-old girl Monday through Friday. One of the boys just finished potty training, so now his dad can have him at daycare on base with him and my sister (the other kids' mom) went on maternity leave and won't be returning to work. I really miss hanging out with the little weirdos. I've helped take care of children almost from birth, so diapers and tantrums don't scare me. I enjoy teaching kids and would be more than willing to help with homework or come up with learning activities. Full disclosure: my CPR/First Aid certification is expired at the moment, but I don't have the money to update it. I will as soon as I can.

I have used Kasey as my primary sitter for well over a year now. She is flexible, reliable, and sensitive to my employment hours. She has been remarkably able to take care of my toddler with a wide range of early and late hours, at short notice, and even after extensive days of sitting without a personal break. She has a wide range of food and drinks that my son seemed to never get tired of. He was able to nap anywhere in the house. My son completely trusts Kasey and the other well-behaved children there. I have had quite a few out-of-town business trips where I approached her door to drop my son off and he was so delighted to spend time there that he never looked back. I call those sleepovers. Once I left for a week and it didn’t even seem to faze him because he was having so much fun learning, watching Disney, playing outside, and doing arts and crafts with his friends. An abundance of engaging toys are piled up in the corners of the apartment as well. Kasey is my go-to for child care for date nights, hikes with friends, business trips, and daily work regimen. I job well done.
