Hello, I have experience caregiving for an elderly person daily for 1 year and am capable of handling tasks for those around me who are unable to do so. I have watched Children of relatives for weekends or when their parents go out of town/vactions, managed their needs of getting them to school and preparing meals for the week. I am a pet owner myself and have a pet-sitting background for Dogs & Cats. I am easy going and always willing to attend to the needs of those under my care. Thank you for reading this. May this message find you well and I hope I can be a caregiver for your requests/needs. Have a great day.

Kelby $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kelby, I have over 7 years of experience working with children of all ages in various settings. I’ve worked in childcare centers and preschools as a lead teacher in classrooms ranging from toddlers to preschoolers, as well as school-aged children. I’ve also nannied for two wonderful families, caring for children from ages 2 months to 17 years. I love creating engaging activities that encourage creativity and imagination, and I have a large amount of experience leading crafts, helping with homeschool and afterschool homework, organizing drop-offs and pick-ups for extracurricular activities, and preparing simple, kid-friendly meals. I also provide light housekeeping, including tidying up after children, assisting with nap time routines, and handling children’s laundry. I’m passionate about helping children thrive in a safe, nurturing environment where they can learn, play, and grow. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and experienced to support your family, I’d love to connect!

Hello my name is Yashaley i’m currently in my first year of college. I am offering pet services. I am mostly used to taking care of smaller to medium sized dogs, but I do have some experience with some of the bigger breeds as well as any cats. I can walk, play, feed and pick up after them and do any basic house work cleaning.

“Yashaley was so careful with my baby and he was all smiles and tail wags. She’s such a warm spirit ”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
