Neliamu $17 per hour for 1 child
Hi, my name is Nelly and I’m currently a college student at Grandview university majoring in School Social Work this is my Senior year. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I have a lot of experience with children because I’m the oldest daughter with 8 younger siblings. I helped take care of them while my parents were at work, so I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-age children. I also worked with an organization where I tutored school-age children and have about 2–3 years of experience working with children. I enjoy singing, playing games, arts and crafts, reading, and spending time with kids. Senior care is also very meaningful to me. When I was 16, I watched my parents care for my grandmother when she could no longer do things for herself, and I would help whenever I could. That experience made me passionate about helping seniors and supporting families. I can help with cooking, cleaning, laundry, organizing, and errands. I’m a caring, patient, responsible, and empathetic person. I also love singing, cooking, cleaning, and helping others.
