Gabriella East Lansing
$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Gabriella - Brie for short. I am a Junior at Michigan State University double majoring in International Relations and Supply Chain Management. I am from the Washington DC suburbs and am here for school. I offer childcare, pet services, and household services. At age 12 I began mother's helping in my neighborhood, advancing to babysitting and petsitting at 14, by 16 I added housesitting, driving children to and from school and activities, and tutoring to my services. I have both house sit and pet sit overnight, I always encourage families to hire a live-in pet sitter while gone rather than a day walker or boarding so your pet is used to them and has a routine in a safe and familiar place. I love sports, reading, walking when the weather is nice, games and cards, and am generally a chatty person. I have been described as warm and bubbly, while also being able to adapt to a child's temperament and mood needs. I do ask a lot of clarifying questions because I never want to overstep your role as a parent or pet parent, so open and clear communication is a must for me.

Booked by 1 family in Eaton Rapids, MI

I have been babysitting/ had experience with small children since I was 9 or 10- first with my little brother and cousins and later babysitting outside the home. I helped with Vacation Bible School and Sunday School for many years, as a leader. I now have nieces and nephews that I have babysat over the years too. Kids seem to like me fairly quickly- I honestly think it's the curly hair doing a lot of the work lol I love doing crafts or reading (voices and all) and my family loves to play games. As far as the fur babies- I grew up having cats, all my friends have cats, my mom used to foster for the Humane Society and I've got my own 2 handsome sons. I have also had experience living with a dog, as well as dogsitting and I am very comfortable around them. I like to keep my spaces pretty tidy and organized and clean my own home regularly. You can often find me gently bossing my friend around so she gets her chores and tasks done lol

Akua is reliable and great with cats!
