In the past I have brought kids to the park, done crafts, tutored/help with homework. I am available for babysitting as well as pet care.

Hi! I'm Ksenia (or Kay), a reliable and caring sitter and household helper with a background in both childcare and pet care. I'm a parent to a joyful 5-year-old, so I truly understand the importance of creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for kids of all ages. I have a college degree in Fine Art, and I love bringing creativity into daily activities—whether it's arts and crafts, imaginative play, or fun learning moments. I’ve had cats for most of my life and am very comfortable with pets of all kinds. I’m also someone who genuinely enjoys cleaning, organizing, meal planning / prepping, and helping households run smoothly. Whether you need help keeping your little ones happy and entertained, your pets loved and cared for, or your home calm and in order, I'm happy to step in with a can-do attitude and warm, dependable energy. Looking forward to connecting with families who value kindness, structure, and creativity in their home!
