JOB OPPORTUNITY-We need a babysitter.  And we're hoping you need some money! 

 We live in Manchester and have a happy & healthy 8 month old son.  Since we have a small network up here, we're looking for someone responsible to watch him one to four times a month (weekend nights, half days for skiing, etc.).  Transportation is really helpful.  So is infant CPR.  Though, neither are required.  Excellent references are a must.  Pay is competitive too!Please email Emily at elsmith33@yahoo.com or call us at 802.362.3331. We'd love to hear from you!
