Weekend Babysitting Help Needed for Three Kids in Kitsilano

I am really stressed out and desperately need a reliable person to look after my three energetic children, ages 3, 6, and 8, this coming weekend.

My regular sitter just moved away from Vancouver, and honestly, I'm feeling overwhelmed trying to juggle my work deadlines and the kids' activities.

It's important that you can keep them engaged with creative play and handle the usual dinner and bedtime routines without too much fuss.

The hours we're looking for are Saturday from 2 PM to 10 PM and Sunday from 4 PM to 9 PM, but we can be a little flexible with the start times if needed.

Since we live in an older walk-up building near Kits Beach, it's good to know that there's no elevator, so you'll get a little workout!

You'd be responsible for helping the 6-year-old with his simple reading homework, preparing a quick, easy meal (like pasta or tacos), and making sure everyone brushes their teeth and gets into bed on time.

I prefer to communicate via email about schedules and any questions before the weekend, as I am often in meetings during the day.
