Occasional Babysitter

Helpr • Ossining, NY

About The Position

A family in Ossining is seeking an occasional babysitter for their two children, ages 1 and 3 years, with an immediate start. Backup care is needed intermittently when the children are home sick from daycare on weekdays from 9:00 AM–5:00 PM. Most illnesses will be minor (low-grade fever, colds, or coughs), though candidates should be comfortable caring for occasional stomach bugs. There are no guaranteed hours, and candidates do not need to be available for all of the family’s needs. Two friendly cats are in the home (no pet care required). Mom works from home and is looking for someone to keep the children engaged while she works.
