Hello!! My name is Suzanne and I am a mom of 11 year old twins. Being a public school teacher / administrator for 20+ years weeknights, weekends and after school sitting is perfect for me and my family. I have experience with children of all ages (newborn - high school), learning styles and needs and would love to sit for you. Have my own car and non smoking of course! First aid, AED, and CPR certified for infants and adults. Will follow all rules and schedules you have and am comfortable around pets. Looking forward to hearing from you to discuss your needs. Thanks, Suzanne

$25 per hour for 1 child

I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old, caring for families with anywhere from one to four children ranging in age from newborns to 12 years old. I also have a one year old of my own and bring a strong educational background to my childcare experience. I’ve been a teacher for nine years with a focus in special education and have taught Kindergarten, 1st, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. I’m very hands-on and love engaging kids in both indoor and outdoor activities, from creative crafts to active play. I’m also happy to help with homework, chores, and daily routines. I can prepare meals, tidy up, and ensure the kids stay on track while having fun. In addition to my love for working with children, I’m an animal lover who grew up with dogs and currently has a chocolate lab.

“Absolutely wonderful! Courtney is engaged with my son the whole time she is here!”

I am a mother of two, wildly energetic toddlers under the age of 5! I have a Masters in Social Work, am passionate about the neurodivergent community and I'm a houseplant enthusiast! My love for pets is unmatched and unbiased (cats + dogs are equally adored). I have experience as a part-time nanny (10+ years) and continue to work with children presently. I welcome the opportunity to support any household needs families may have as well!
