Are you ready for a fun part-time job? We’re on the hunt for an energetic babysitter/nanny to join our fun-loving trio of girls from Thoreau Elementary School! Our little crew, ages 6, 6, and 9, enjoys outdoor play at the school playground on sunny days and gets creative with art activities at our home (just a few blocks away) when the weather isn't cooperating. They love snacks, giggles, and are known for their cheerful and responsible nature.

Located conveniently on 3870 Nakoma Rd, the school is just a breezy bus or bike ride from the UW Campus. If you’re up for an extra splash of fun, driving the kiddos to a nearby library in a provided car on Mondays is a delightful option (but not a must). 

Join us and make a difference in these delightful girls’ lives! ?
