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)

Hi, my name is Emily. I’m a mom of two little ones and looking for a way to bring in some extra income for my family by doing something I genuinely love — taking care of kids. I have over 15 years of childcare experience, including working with: • Newborns through middle schoolers • Twins • Children with disabilities • Sick children • Potty training • School drop-off and pick-up routines • Large groups of kids I grew up caring for my infant siblings, led children’s Sunday school, and have worked as a daycare leader for large groups of children. I also ran the Kids Club program at Chick-fil-A for two years, where I was also a marketing assistant. I’ve been a junior high youth leader for 5 years, worked as a nanny for over two years, and have been babysitting since I was 12. I’m CPR certified, have my own transportation, and love doing fun activities and playing games that keep kids happy and engaged. Thank you so much for considering me to care for your little ones!
