[quote=run_wasabi]I am a stay at home parent looking for a reliable sitter as our regular part time nanny is moving out of state.

At the moment, the arrangement is just for back up and date nights, prefer someone whom we can rely on regularly.  As I'm also looking to transition back to work, this arrangement can become full time if all things work out.

My husband and I have a 2.5 year old son who is gentle, loving and a truly happy child.  He is pretty independent - can eat on his own, brush his teeth, drink from a cup, cooperative during nap time, bed time and clean up time.  We try our best to be consistent in his routines so it's easy for us and whoever is taking care of him.

We also try to be firm in disciplining him so he understands there are limits to certain disruptive behavior.  He is pretty cooperative for the most part and acts out like any toddler when overtired and hungry.

We would like to have someone be part of our family and treat our son with the love and respect we give him.  Qualifications and responsiblities include:

must be vaccinated
must provide references
must be vigilant and have presence of mind
has experience with infants and toddlers
taking care of our son
bringing him to activities via public transportation (he loves playgrounds and museums; we don't have a car)
knows how to cook
will do light cleaning and some errands (e.g. doing laundry, tidying up, grocery shopping)

Bonus: if CPR certified, swims, drives, and speaks Mandarin (teaching him this language at home)

Rate is $15/hr.

Please get in touch with me if interested and let's set up an interview the week of May 6th.

Thank you.
