I have been babysitting since I was 12 (quite a long time ago!) and have loved working with children. I think some of the best times are making crafts or baking cookies or treats. I love also to play outside when possible and if not, then inside can become a blanket fort or castle. I love pets, so don't worry if you have them. And also, I can work pretty well with short notice. I think that TV or videos should be reserved for children who don't feel well, and quiet restfulness is what is needed. I also am an avid reader, and love to tell stories using lots of character voices (I was big into drama growing up). Most of all I like to have fun, and it seems those kids that I babysit always have a good time.

Victoria sat for me a couple of times. I was apprehensive because my kids don't always do well with strangers, but they didn't cry once. They asked about her even after she had left. Good experience for using my first sitter from this website! Sorry for the lateness of this review

Vicky does an excellent job when watching my daughter. My daughter has a lot of energy and Vicky is very good at keeping her engaged in activities such as coloring, reading, and playing outdoors.

She is available every time we have asked her without any issues. Always on time. She goes further than asked of her when she is babysitting my twins. Excellent Sitter! We have used her almost 10 times already and have no complaints!

Vickie has been watching my son for almost 8 mos. She has also offered cleaning services as well as pet and house sitting. She is dependable, honest, very observant and very thoughtful. Vickie is patient and caring with my son and she is extremely helpful to me, she is always trying and does help us in any way she can. There have been no problems or concerns for me and I will continue to use her services confidently. I do highly recommend her. Doug

I was very upset that I wasn't able to hire this sitter. But, she would say she would come and meet myself, my daughter and husband and then wouldn't show up or call. I can't trust somebody to care for my child if they won't keep in contact.
