I am a mother of two daughters, ages 22, and 13, and my years of parenting have helped me develop excellent communication, problem-solving, organizational, and time-management skills. I am responsible, trustworthy, dependable, and attentive to individual needs. Whether caring for children, pets, or assisting families, I am committed to providing reliable support with patience, kindness, and compassion. In addition to my experience as a mother, I have volunteered and worked at an animal shelter, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals and understanding their unique needs. One of my greatest strengths is my ability to connect with both people and animals, creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment. I take pride in my strong sense of responsibility and dedication to providing attentive, high-quality care. My goal is always to give families peace of mind, knowing their loved ones and pets are receiving the highest level of care, attention, and respect.
Hello, My name is Aloha, I'm 24 years old, and I'm currently an au pair for a family of three children, ages 7, 14, and 17. The 14-year-old is autistic, so I'm able to look after a child with a mild disability. I'm French but I speak good English. In France, I also looked after children between the ages of 3 and 6. I've also looked after toddlers a few times, so I'm able to do so with clear instructions about their needs. I am offering child care, pets care, and household services. I can cook, drive to appointments, or other tasks. Looking forward to helping you :)
I am a dependable, compassionate, and patient caregiver with extensive experience supporting children and families. As an employee of LAUSD, I have been thoroughly vetted through government background checks and professional screening requirements. I am fully bilingual in English and Spanish, allowing me to communicate effectively with diverse families. My experience includes working with children of varying ages and needs, providing academic support, supervision, homework assistance, and emotional encouragement. Families appreciate my reliability, strong communication skills, organization, and commitment to creating a safe, positive, and nurturing environment. I am trustworthy, adaptable, and dedicated to providing high-quality care tailored to each family’s unique needs.
Dixie, my first pet, joined our family when I was just a year old, teaching me lessons of love, loyalty, patience, and protection. My deep affection for animals translates into special connections, and I care for them as if they were my own. I've mastered the art of training animals tricks. Recently I have trained my sister's new puppy to take treats gently, sit, and spin on command. Additionally, my cats now respond to the command to stand up. Animals have significantly contributed to my mental well-being, and I value the opportunity Rover provides to get out of the house to go on walks with new animal companions. Looking forward for the chance to meeting your furry friend soon❤️
