Hello I'm new here, excited to get started and receive reviews! I am a very active and fun-loving “Coastal Grandma” ;) looking to fill some of my time (retired) caring for your child(ren). I have experience with children of all ages, kids with special needs, was a licensed daycare provider for years, own and ran a children’s party business, and am now a “Gigi” to my first precious grandbaby. I’m also a recently certified Kinderschuss ski instructor! I’m dependable, reliable, cautious and kind. I love sharing my gifts of positive energy, creativity, compassion & understanding. I love to teach, read, rock, walk and engage in age-appropriate and developmental play. I have experience with infants and newborns (and postpartum parents) and am happy to provide care at ANY time, even overnight, so you can enjoy some sleep!

I look forward to giving you a helping hand for a date night out, an afternoon, a full day of fun or an overnight!

I believe in some of the “old standards” meaning that I’ll be completely engaged in providing loving care for your children (without use of electronic devices) while they’re awake…and will tidy up, prepare a meal and fold laundry while they sleep! I’ve had Babysitting Certification, Early Childhood Education classes, internship & plenty of years experience with my own children (who are now incredibly kind and caring adults :), and countless others who have been in my care.

Jerilyn is a truly exceptional caregiver. I was in town with my 4-month-old baby for a weekend and had never left him with anyone or used SitterCity before. I was nervous, but as soon as we met I felt a connection and knew I was comfortable leaving him with her. Jerilyn was everything I hoped for — dependable, communicative, kind, and experienced — but also so much more. She knew all the little quirks of his age, from diapering to sleep to play and more. She jumped in right away and even knew how to help me set up the baby monitor app! She exuded fun, calm, and confidence during a stressful time for me, and it made for a beautiful evening out with my friends. It was like leaving my baby with a trusted family member who genuinely cared about our wellbeing. My only regret was that we couldn’t bring her home with us!
