Hi! My name is Olivia, and I have a background in luxury retail, customer service, and caregiving for children in my family. I’ve helped care for my 5-year-old nephew along with several younger cousins over the years, so I’m very comfortable keeping kids entertained, safe, and engaged. I’m patient, energetic, reliable, and love creating a fun environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I offer babysitting, homework help, light housekeeping, meal/snack prep, bedtime routines, errands, and pet care if needed. I’m very hands-on and attentive — I’m not someone who sits on my phone while watching kids. They always have my full attention. I have experience with toddlers and young children and enjoy activities like arts & crafts, movies, outdoor walks, games, baking, reading, and creative play. I’m also happy to help with schoolwork and keeping routines organized. I’m comfortable around pets, including larger dogs, and can help with feeding, walks, and playtime. I’m also open to helping with household tasks like laundry, tidying up, organizing, dishes, and grocery runs. While I’m not CPR certified yet, I’m very open to becoming certified and take child safety seriously. I’m flexible, dependable, and excited to help make life easier for busy families!

I am an artist with extensive service industry experience. In addition to yoga instruction, I am very passionate about both art therapy and health consciousness. I fell into Care-giving after my mum suffered a brain aneurysm rupture in March of 2020. My Pandemic experience was filled with aiding my brain damaged mother during every day tasks. I learned so much....about care giving and about myself. My patience and understanding have been the strength that keeps me going. The experience has made me even more mentally flexible and welcoming of any challenge; new or existing. My Theatre training has also been tantamount to my ability to relate to and engage with others. I look forward to meeting new people and helping anyone I can. My name means 'savior of men'. But, I'm happy knowing I made someone's life a little better than it was. And, I most definitely plan to stay on said path.

My personal experience as a caregiver starts with helping my older sister with my nephew’s care while I was in my 20’s, then raising my own three daughters, who are now decent young ladies. I understand the amount of work required to raise children specially when in nowdays society requires mothers to help support the household, which is why I am interested in lending a helping hand and while enjoying doing what I know the most of, caring for children. However, caregiving for children is not my only area of expertice, I as well have some experience with seniors, since between 2[removed] I had to take care of a family member that required full time care due to inability of taking care of basic needs from brushing teeth, meal preping for specific nutritional needs, maintaining all areas and utensils clean to avoid infections, feeding through feeding tube and some other activities. Because of this, I have completed some hours of training to work as a Senior Care Giver.
