Hello! I just moved here from Washington DC. I went to school in Austin, Texas and am originally from Arizona! I'm currently a graduate student at Case Western and looking to provide some support for a family while maintaining a flexible schedule! I have been a nanny since I was in highschool as well as a tutor. I worked in a pediatric clinic for 2 years as a lead medical assistant and laboratory technician. I've volunteered in hospice and a variety of other clinical care settings as doing clinical work is my passion. I plan on continuing in the healthcare field after my graduate studies and would love to find an opportunity that lets me utilize my passions and hobbies for caring and education! I enjoy crafts, puzzles, reading, creative writing, pets, dancing and live art (theatre, music, etc.)! I am also very active and love playing volleyball, practicing yoga and going on hikes! I was a very active and busy child and want to being that same philosophy for life my parents instilled in me into any home looking for structure and engagement, at any age :)
I have extensive experience and love working with large families and children with disabilities. I enjoy filling babysitting time with craftwork and enjoying the outdoors, and the kids do too! I am confident that whatever the challenge, I am up to the task, and have been a reliable go-to person for friends, family, and even former teachers for a variety of childcare needs. Since I was just a ten year old girl, I’ve translated my experience with my own anxiety into a comfortable stay for countless anxious pups under my care. Making sure your dog adjusts while away from their parents is my priority. I have spent hundreds of hours volunteering with animals at local rescues and have learned so much about how to provide the best, most loving care to your pet!
Hello, My name is Tinika, a mother of 4 grown kids. I have 2 grandchildren ages 4 and 1 yrs old. I have another grandchild on the way. I have many years of infant and child care; both in house and professionally. I have worked in administration within a school district for over 12 yrs. I have worked in the elementary and high school. I am first aid certified, hold a BA from Cleveland state, and a certification in mindfulness. Over the years I have ran errands for home bound seniors. I have also done some light housework as needed. I am originally from Seattle, WA and enjoy visiting home in the summers. I am an author of 3 books and enjoy reading in my free time. I love the water and will find new beaches and waterfalls to enjoy whenever I can.
Hi! My name is Kristina and I am a current sophomore at John Carroll University studying Primary Education with a concentration in Intervention Specialist. I have reliable transportation and am in the process of becoming adult and pediatric CPR certified. I’m also happy to help with pets while caring for children. I’m comfortable with feeding, playing with, and letting pets outside, as well as taking dogs for walks if needed. I’m happy to discuss your pets and their individual routines and needs. I have been working with a PreK-8th grade theater program for over five years. This past summer I have also had the opportunity to be an instructor for a PreK-4th grade theater summer camp. I have also been involved in volunteering with 4th and 6th graders in more academic settings. Throughout these experiences, I have been able to help with homework, facilitate educational activities, provide fun entertainment to children, and get to know each child's specific needs. Overall, I’m looking forward to meeting families and becoming someone you can trust to provide your children with safe, caring, and fun experiences while you’re away!
