Description
We’re currently looking for an Occasional Babysitter in San Rafael, CA 94903
A lovely family in the Terra Linda neighborhood of San Rafael is seeking an occasional babysitter for their two children, ages 5 and 8, with an immediate start. Backup care is needed intermittently on weekdays from 2:45PM–7:30PM/8PM, with Wednesdays starting at 2PM. The family would also appreciate candidates who have weekday availability from 7:45AM–11AM, though this is not a requirement. The children are active and enjoy playing on their iPads. The 8-year-old is autistic, so the family would especially love to find a caregiver with experience supporting children with speech delays or special needs. There is also a large, friendly dog in the home. Ideally, the caregiver will be comfortable taking the dog for 1–2 walks across the street during evening shifts.
