Welcome

to Auntie Jill’s Playdates!

I’m Jill, a mom of two toddlers (Knox & Jameson) who loves turning ordinary days into little adventures. A couple days each week, I offer small-group playdates (2–3 kids max) where your child can join us for safe, fun outings—parks, picnics, and more. I provide pickup, drop-off, snacks, and plenty of smiles, so you can enjoy peace of mind while your kids enjoy their day.

My Story

​

Hi, I’m Jill — or as the kids call me, Auntie Jill!

​

I’m a stay-at-home mom of five (three school-age kids and two toddlers, Knox and Jameson). Between school runs, snacks, nap times, and endless adventures, I’ve learned a lot about patience, flexibility, and making even the simplest outings into something memorable.

As much as I love being home with my kids, I also wanted to carve out a path toward financial independence for myself and my family. After years of balancing family life and creative side businesses, I realized it made sense to double down on one of my strongest gifts — my maternal skills and love for children.

​

That’s how Auntie Jill’s Playdates was born. With just 2–3 kids at a time, I keep things small, safe, and personal. I provide pickup and drop-off in my family SUV, healthy snacks or lunches, and a rotating mix of outings like parks, picnics, and play spaces. Parents cover any admission costs, but everything else is taken care of — including smiles, laughs, and memories.

​

This little venture is more than childcare — it’s my way of turning what I already do every day into something that gives back to other families, while also helping me build a more secure future for mine.

Why Parents LOVE us

Every parent deserves a little breathing room. Maybe you have a doctor’s appointment, a work call, errands to run, or you just need a quiet house to recharge. Auntie Jill’s Playdates gives you that break without the guilt — because while you’re enjoying your time, your child is out on a safe adventure, playing, laughing, and making memories. With small groups, door-to-door pickup and drop-off, and plenty of snacks and smiles, you get the brain break you need while your little one gets the attention and activity they crave.

Why Kids LOVE us

For kids, Auntie Jill’s Playdates feel like mini-adventures. They get to ride in the “mom-mobile,” explore parks, play on swings, have picnics, and discover something new each time. With just a couple of friends along, there’s always room to run, laugh, and be silly — without being lost in a big crowd. They love the snacks, the games, and the feeling of having their own special outing, while making memories with Knox, Jameson, and new friends.
