Arahmy $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Arahmy. I’m a medical school graduate currently studying for my medical boards before applying to residency, and I’m looking to offer childcare, senior care, pet care, and household support. I’m a patient, responsible, and loving caregiver who genuinely enjoys playing with kids and supporting families. While my years of experience have been caring for older adults, I also have some babysitting experience, though it has been on and off over the past few years. I’m happy to help with homework, activities, errands, and household tasks like cleaning and meal prepping. For those only looking for a household helper I would also be willing to help with any household tasks to make your week go smoother. I am bilingual in Spanish and also love pets—I can help take care of them, including walks, feeding, and playtime. My goal is to provide reliable, safe, and nurturing care while making life a little easier for the families I work with.
