This is baby sitting for people who are interested in playing Cards Against Humanity and need a sitter. I am current on CPR, defib through the red cross. I turned 21 this June, so I am a legal adult. We will be doing different activities each Saturday such as watching movies, arts and crafts, board games, as well as outdoor activities. I ask to pack your child a drink and snack if they want it and any special needs such as inhalers. Please do not to bring children that are not potty trained or in need of constant attention given since I will be watching more than 5 children at a time and can't give them the attention that they need. If you have any ideas for activities that the children can do please let me know, Thank you.

The fee is a total of $10.00 per child every Saturday night from 7:00PM-10:00PM.
