$25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Lucy and I am 19. I graduated with my AA degree from Crown College last year and currently work in healthcare with retired US veterans. I am currently in search of additional work hours in the hopes of putting more money into my savings. I am first-aid and CPR certified, and have my driver's and lifeguarding licenses. I am willing to do housework, meal prep, help with homework, and get children to-and-from daily activities if applicable. My schedule can be flexible, though I will need two weeks to communicate and coordinate any major changes with my other job. Thank you!
