Babysitter Needed

Once or twice a week babysitter for two girls, ages 5 and almost 2, in Oakland. 3 hours at a time. Our 5-year-old is imaginative, affectionate and generally gets along very well with babysitters once she warms up (within 1 or 2 visits). She can be sensitive to lots of questions, noise, and unexpected transitions. She loves to do arts and crafts, gardening, story telling, reading books, writing pretend books, making little snacks in the kitchen, etc. And the little one is an apprentice of her big sister. She's interested in anything the big sister is interested in. Wed especially love someone who is playful, comfortable following a childs lead, and good at being spacious with them.
