Hi y’all my name is Hannah and I am a recent graduate from the University of Notre Dame! I love being around kids and animals but also offer services in senior care as well as completing needed chores. I currently work as a registered behavioral therapist for kiddos on the spectrum here in Austin so my everyday work life is always entertaining! When I provide care you can expect punctuality, kindness, responsibility, and lots of fun! I have previously been CPR certified and have experience working within high stress environments. Lastly, I have a valid drivers license and am happy to drive whenever needed! I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon!

My schedule is open Monday and Friday and also availability on most weekends! I have been working with kids ages 1-15 years old since I was 16. I have been a camp counselor, tutored students, and been a babysitter/nanny over the 6 years I have been a caretaker. I also love all pets. I have two dogs myself, a Great Pyrenees and a Maltese-Yorkie mix. I have been a pet sitter for dogs and cats, but I am also open to attending to all types of pets! I love all animals!
