Looking for an Occasional Babysitter  

Norton

Hi-My husband and I are looking for a babysitter for our two girls for weeknights when we have school events to attend (not very often, at all) and sometimes on the weekends so that we can have date nights. :-) We are looking for someone who is fairly flexible and is okay with us giving possibly less than a weeks notice if we need them to babysit (for example, we might call early in the week for that same weekend). We're also looking for someone who will be in the area for the foreseeable future, since we don't want to get used to a babysitter that our girls really enjoy for it to only be a short-term relationship. Our girls are 2 (almost 3) and 5 and are a lot of fun. :-) We also have a Boxer, so our future babysitter must love dogs (because he loves people!)
Thanks so much for your time and we look forward to hearing from you!
