Booked by 1 family in Goodyear, AZ

Hi! I am Dana, a freshman at the University of Arizona. I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. I was and continue to be the family’s unofficial babysitter, tutor, and pet sitter. Having a large family I have taken care of multiple children at a time, the largest group being of 10. My experience with care taking is extensive, I have worked with age ranges from 9 months to 15 years of age. I love working with children and have developed a passion for teaching. Most of my work with children have been through tutoring sessions. As for senior care, I have experience through supporting my grandmother after my grandfather’s passing. This included cooking with her, accompanying her in everyday tasks, and ensuring her every need is taken care of. Although I have have yet to be a pet sitter I have a dog of my own, and I ensure that his every needs are taken care of. I am comfortable pet sitting smaller animals, as my experience is with my small dog. I have experience house sitting for family members, and offer cleaning services if requested. Household services offered: driving to appointments, cleaning a general area, running errands, and organizing spaces. (I can bring my own cleaning supplies if requested)
