Hi! My name is Jenna, and I am currently enrolled at WGU, where I am completing my teaching credential in Special Education. I am primarily offering childcare services and truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and be themselves. I have over 7 years of childcare experience as a nanny, behavioral therapy manager, and school aide. Throughout my career, I have worked with infants, toddlers, school-aged children, and young adults, including individuals with special needs. One of my favorite parts of working with children is watching them gain confidence, discover new interests, and reach milestones. It's incredibly rewarding to be someone who can support and encourage their growth every step of the way. In previous roles, I have provided light cooking, meal preparation, interactive play that encourages learning and development, tutoring, arts and crafts, and transportation to and from activities. I am also happy to help with light housekeeping to make life a little easier for busy families. I am comfortable working in homes with cats and dogs and would be happy to assist with pet care as an additional responsibility. Your child's safety is always my top priority. I am certified in First Aid, CPR, and AED, so you can have peace of mind knowing your child is in capable and caring hands. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and provide reliable, compassionate care while helping your child learn, explore, and have fun every day.

Hello, my name is Victoria. I am a retired and I have time to help busy families. I am offering child care, senior care and pet services. I have raised a daughter, whom is now an adult and on her own. I help babysit my grandbaby and I have three cats and two dogs of my own. I am able to help transport children to school or elderly to doctor's appointments. When my mother was living, I took care of her as she was disabled from a stroke. I took her to appointments as needed so I know how time consuming it can be. I am here to help.
