We seek a reliable babysitter to care for two children, an infant and a toddler, starting on a flexible date from February 22, 2025. The ideal candidate has their own car and is comfortable with pets. Experience with gentle parenting practices and multiples is essential.

The children are in a routine that is easy to follow with very few steps. Bedtime looks like Toddler has a bath and is tucked into bed, reads only 1 story book, turn off the lights (he has an automatic night light), and turn on Winnie the pooh with very low volume. The infant who is 6 months as of February 2025 has a bedtime routine of changing clothing into PJ's with a sleep sack, 7 OZ bottle, and rocking in the rocking chair. I typically will bathe him every other night due to some eczema/ dry skin issues so I will ensure the night he is babysat that he does not require a bath.

As far as the Toilet training goes we are in the early stages of this. All that will be asked of you is just to offer potty time to the toddler verbally. We are not pushing this right now as we are just trying to get him familiar with the toilet. Other than that he is using pull ups that will require changing. He is not good at letting you know if he is needing a diaper change or not so you will need to keep an eye on that.

For Meals/Snack time we typically have Dinner for the toddler at 6pm and bath at 630ish (depending on when he finished eating). Meals and snacks will NOT require you to cook. For Snacks I keep a large stock of various fresh fruits in the fridge which the toddler DOES like, you would only need to cut up any fruit that would be a choking hazard, additionally I have a snack basket in the pantry he can choose from. If you would need to do dinner I would order you all a pizza or he could have one of his chef Boyardee raviolis microwaved.
