Candice $18 per hour for 1 child
I am a mom and empty nester now (daughter in university), and grew up in a big Filipino family, watching siblings and kids my whole life. I have a full time management job at a local firm, I am just offering help here to give back, because it was challenging for me to find good sitters when my daughter was young. I have a clean background check. Open to any questions 😊 I am a Disney Magic Key holder if of interest as well.

15 years of nursing. Worked in home health with both pediatric and elderly patients. I am very friendly and love taking care of children/adults who need me. I take pride in doing my best with each case and each challenge. I am also an animal lover, and pet owner. I have a cat and a dog. They are both very mellow and friendly.
