Caring & Experienced Babysitter - Patient, Reliable, and Pet-Friendly!

Hi! My name is Devany and I’m 17 years old. I have hands-on experience caring for kids, including my autistic five-year-old little brother. I understand the importance of patience, structure, and making every child feel safe and understood. Whether it's engaging activities, homework help, or bedtime routines, I make sure kids are comfortable and happy. I also know how to keep things clean and organized, ensuring a tidy and safe environment for your little ones. Plus, I'm totally pet-friendly. I have two medium-sized dogs, so I'm comfortable around furry family members too! I'd love to help care for your child with the same dedication and attention I give my own sibling. Let's connect and see how I can support your family!

1. Look for relevant experience

Choose babysitters who have worked with children with similar diagnoses, behaviors, or medical needs.

2. Check training and certifications

Ask about CPR, first aid, and any specialized training (e.g., administering medication, ABA therapy, seizure response).

3. Ask detailed questions

Discuss how they would handle meltdowns, medical emergencies, or communication challenges.

4. Request references

Speak to families of children with special needs they’ve cared for before.

5. Arrange a meet-and-greet

Observe how they interact with your child and whether they connect in a patient, caring way.

6. Be clear about routines

Provide written instructions for meals, bedtime, medications, and calming strategies.

7. Communicate about triggers and supports

Share sensory sensitivities, behavioral strategies, and comfort items.

8. Confirm reliability

Ensure they can commit to consistent care and handle unexpected situations calmly.

9. Start with short sessions

Begin with trial sittings so your child and babysitter can build trust gradually.

10. Trust your instincts

Choose someone who shows genuine empathy, patience, and respect for your child’s individuality.
