Hi! I’m Zeynep and I provide childcare, pet care, and elder care services. I have a bachelor’s degree in Child Development and about 7 years of experience working with children. I have worked in kindergartens, schools, hospitals, orphanages, and special education centers through internships. For the last 1.5 years, I have been taking care of children in the United States.

My duties have included driving children to school, classes, or appointments, preparing healthy meals and snacks, organizing play and storage areas, making arts and crafts, helping with homework, and doing light cleaning related to children.
