I’m a warm, reliable, and experienced caregiver who truly enjoys working with children. Much of my experience comes from being deeply involved in caring for my four nieces and four nephews from infancy through their high school years and beyond. While not day-to-day, my involvement has been extensive and consistent during the times I was needed, full weekends, outings, and family trips where I managed meals, activities, errands, and daily routines. During those periods, I naturally stepped in as an extension of their parents, creating a calm, structured, and engaging environment. Children connect with me easily - I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely present, which helps them feel comfortable and at ease. I focus on keeping children engaged, active, and cared for, whether that’s preparing simple meals, getting outside, playing games, helping with homework, or creating a calm, easy rhythm at home. Outside of caregiving, I run a home organizing and downsizing business, which reflects my thoughtful, organized, and detail-oriented approach. Available for part-time, after-school, and occasional care.

Hi! My name is Tori Lawson, I am 20 years old and I am going into my senior year at the University of Alabama. I am going back to school on August 14th so I am completely available until then. I have experience babysitting my younger cousins, I have been babysitting them since I was 13 years old. I also worked as a counselor for a summer camp. There, I was taking care of children ages 3-14, while mainly focusing on children ages 6-10. I am absolutely a dog lover!! I have a small shish tzu at home, but am very comfortable with dogs of any size and age! I also take care of my sister’s cats when she is away from home so I would be comfortable helping out with cats as well. I do not have any experience in senior caretaking, however I would love to help out with driving to appointments, cooking dinner, or other tasks the job may require. I am also happy to work as a household assistant with cooking, cleaning, or whatever you might need!! One thing to know about me is that I am currently majoring in psychology, as well as minoring in sociology and neuroscience. I plan to continue my education and pursue a career in child psychology, where I will be able to help children work through problems and guide them to a better future for themselves.

I’m responsible, adaptable, and skilled in household management, making me an asset to any family. I also bring experience with pet care and enjoy creating a fun and positive atmosphere for everyone in the home.
