Fatima $35 per hour for 1 child

My name is Fatima. I am currently a graduate student studying chiropractic. I have several years of childcare experience, including caring for my younger brother, who is now 8 years old. I have been responsible for his care since infancy, which has helped me develop strong skills in supervision, patience, and creating a safe, supportive environment. I also have experience working with children as a youth climbing instructor for several years during my undergraduate studies. This role strengthened my ability to communicate effectively, ensure safety, and engage children in a positive and encouraging way. I am detail-oriented and take pride in maintaining a clean and organized home. In addition, I have experience working in a kitchen, which has strengthened my ability to prepare meals, stay organized, and manage multiple tasks efficiently.
