Lynsi $22 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Lynsi! I love kids and I have many years experience in babysitting! I previously held a corporate job for almost 18 years, and do some traveling now, in between caring for the children. I do pet sitting (no cats as I am allergic). I am a very creative neurodivergent and can bring crafting supplies for entertainment! In my free time I enjoy making custom jewelry and can crochet, sew, and care for my senior fur-baby Atlas- an American Bully. No overnight care services at this time. Feel free to ask any questions!
