Carole $25 per hour for 1 child

I’m a reliable, compassionate, and highly experienced caregiver dedicated to providing exceptional care for children, families, and properties. My approach blends professionalism, intuition, and empathy to ensure that every household runs smoothly and every child feels safe, nurtured, and respected. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from infants to teens — including those recovering from illness or needing extra attention and comfort when parents are working or away. While I am not a medical doctor, I’m confident and calm in managing basic care needs, administering medications under parental instruction, and maintaining detailed notes to keep families informed. I understand that every child has unique needs, and I take pride in creating a gentle, stable environment that fosters both healing and growth. In addition to childcare, I offer full home and property care. I ensure that homes are clean, organized, and secure, plants and pets are tended to, and daily routines continue without interruption. Whether you’re traveling, managing multiple residences, or just need an extra pair of hands, I bring a sense of order, warmth, and trustworthiness to every household I assist. My background includes experience in education, family support, and property management. Families describe me as attentive, resourceful, and kind-hearted — someone who treats their home and loved ones as if they were my own. I’m also comfortable with scheduling, errands, meal preparation, and light housekeeping, ensuring that the home environment is peaceful and welcoming. Whether you need help caring for your children, overseeing your property, or simply bringing calm and reliability into your home, I am here to help with a professional yet personal touch.
