Hi! I’m Grecia, a certified educator with a Bachelor’s degree in Education and years of experience caring for children from K–8. I’m patient, reliable, and safety-focused, and I always make sure children feel comfortable, supported, and well cared for. I have experience with neurodiverse children, can help with homework and routines, and keep kids engaged in a calm, positive way. I’m also fully bilingual in English and Spanish.

Hi! My name is Guennivere and I am an 18 year old senior in high school with a big passion for caretaking. I am offering child care, pet care, and household services. I love kids and animals with all my heart. I plan to become an art teacher in the future, so I’d love to do all kinds of art/craft projects to if your kids are interested! I’ve had two younger brothers for most of my life that I’ve cared for continuously whether that’s changing diapers, cooking, emotional support, etc. My biggest goal is to be an extra person in your kid(s)’s life that they know cares about them. I’ve found it’s incredibly important to let kids be kids and I’m positive I can find the perfect balance to help your kids excel while also keeping their spirits high! Although art is my favorite activity, I have a big family with all kinds of interests, so I’ll make sure their interests are prioritized and paid attention to. My dad has been a chef my whole life so I can happily take care of food. I have great communication skills, especially regarding emotional issues, so you as the parent will be kept fully up to date with how your child’s doing. A priority of mine is to let parents have alone time without having to feel any worry about their kid, it’s called alone time for a reason! I’ve been around cats and dogs a LOT my whole life. Seriously- I had 15 cats at one point. Nonetheless my love and excitement for them stays the same. So if you need a pet sitter, I’m all ears for that too!
