About Shannon

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! I'm a fun and creative sitter with over 10 years of experience. I'm typically energetic, which means I have lots of fun participating in crafts, games, and outdoor time with your kiddos! During the week from Mon - Thurs I work as a mental health therapist, which means you can trust that I'm kind, empathic, responsible, and detail-oriented. My years of education and personal experience have taught me that caring for children involves a bounty of patience, the ability to be loving, yet firm, and being able to laugh at yourself daily. I like to think I'm great with all three. With me, your sweet babes will be happy and safe. In addition to taking exceptional care of your little ones, I'm open to taking on any other tasks that you may need help with. I'm experienced with pet care and I can cook meals, complete housework, run errands, and provide school pick-ups.

Shannon took care of our 3 kiddos - 5 year old girl, 3 year old boy, and 2 year old girl - consistently every Friday for the past 2 years. The kids always had a lot of fun with her - she is so great about playing games, doing crafts and taking adventures. Shannon is communicative, caring and reliable! We are sad to say goodbye due to changes in our school schedule. Happy to chat if you want to learn more about Shannon! We are excited to stay in touch with her as the kids have formed a bind!
