About Dorothy

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi there! I started working with kids by helping out with my younger siblings, and then began babysitting at 13. I have worked with kids ranging in age from 3 months to 12 years old. I have nannied, tutored, and have worked as a speech therapist with kids grades 3-5. I love an educational activity (willing to help with homework/tutoring) as much as I love playing catch or doing arts and crafts. I also love to cook and comfortable preparing meals. I love animals, and I am happy to assist with dog walking and cat care. I am comfortable providing transportation, and have a chevy equinox. I work from home full time during the week, but in a pinch I can work from anywhere on my laptop. My availability during the week begins after 5:30 pm, and I am available weekends. In my spare time, I like to cook, read, and spend time with my 2 cats, my friends, and family.

From the moment Dorothy arrived, her warmth and genuine affection for our children were evident. Her ability to connect with them on a personal level, while still maintaining the necessary boundaries, made our little ones feel comfortable and secure. Beyond her incredible skills as a caregiver, Dorothy's punctuality, professionalism, and clear communication made working with her a breeze. She consistently kept us informed about our children's progress and was always open to any feedback we provided. In short, Dorothy is a gift to any family in need of a dedicated, skilled, and loving babysitter!
