Elizabeth $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if I can help you. (((IHSS Certified Provider))) Housekeeping is something I’ve returned to during these turbulent times. I have lifelong experience working alongside my mother, providing elderly care and home support for those in need. I’ve always appreciated the wisdom and heartfelt conversations I’ve shared with seniors—maybe I’m an old soul? I’ve also had tons of experience with babies and kids. My first niece was born when I was just 5 years old—and after that, the babies just kept on coming. It honestly felt like there was a new one every year. At one point, I stopped asking who was pregnant and just assumed someone was. 😅 Now I have over 13 nieces and nephews, and I’ve helped care for all of them. From baby duty to wild toddler years, I’ve pretty much seen it all. I also have 7 great-nieces and great-nephews—so yes, the family just keeps growing! I’m a proud “Great Aunty”—no pun intended—but I really am the fun favorite. (I think I’ve earned the title!) Outside of caregiving and home support, I’m a deeply creative, artistic person. Music plays a huge role in my life—it inspires me, grounds me, and adds rhythm to everything I do. I’m the type of person who always has a song in mind, and I love meaningful lyrics, creative expression, and all things soulful. I find joy in good conversation, humor, and connecting with people on a real level. If you think we’d be a good fit, I’d love to chat. ~ Excited for our paths to cross ~
