I’m a compassionate, dependable, and patient caregiver who genuinely enjoys helping others. I have experience caring for children, pets, and assisting with household tasks, and I’m known for being responsible, organized, and calm under pressure. My background in political science and current graduate studies in psychology have strengthened my communication, problem-solving, and understanding of people’s needs. Whether it’s providing a safe, engaging environment for children, offering companionship to seniors, caring for pets, or helping with errands and light housekeeping, I strive to make life a little easier for the families I work with. I value honesty, kindness, and reliability, and I treat every person with the same respect and care I would want for my own loved ones.

I started babysitting at the age of sixteen. I have experience with every age including infants! I am a part time college student and studying to become an Ultrasound tech. I’m very patient, caring, and loyal to all families I babysit for. I have experience in dogsitting and if there’s any senior citizens that need help I’ve taken care of my grandmother with schizophrenia. I know how to do all basic household chores including; dishes, light cleaning, laundry, cooking, and meal prep!

Apart from cleaning, I have had some babysitting and pet care jobs. Within them I have cleaned, cooked, ran errands. For child care I have done tutoring and crafts, and love getting to know the kids!
