I used to work at the Creme de la Creme early learning center in Sandy Springs and absolutely loved working with the children there and learning about each child. I have taken care of children ages ranging from infants to middle school and looked after groups of 7-18 children at a time alone. I have taken 10 hours of Georgia Health and Safety training and was given my Professional Development certification. I am also happy to work with families that have pets!

Sheila $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello there! My name is Sheila. I’m a middle-aged spinster auntie getting back into the babysitting game. I work a part-time remote job with very flexible hours and I’m looking for some equally flexible income on the side. Because of this, I’m not looking for part-time or full-time positions. But if you’ve got a date night, a day event, or a sick kid and need coverage, I’m your gal! I’m mature enough to handle difficult situations but silly enough to get down on the floor and play right alongside your kids. I’m an experienced storyteller, and I can whip up an interactive bedtime story on the spot. I have a shiny, red, reliable car to get me to your place and back and for school pick-ups as needed. Let me know what your needs are and let’s see how we can work together. :)
