Hello! Great to meet you! I am from Jamaica and have been here in Clermont, FL (and an American citizen) since 2004! I am an officer with the Lake County Sheriff's Dept, and I am CEO of a non-profit organization called Dorca's Way (You can find info on Facebook). We have monthly food drops for people in need. I enjoy caring for pets and helping others so much, I would love to help out families who need part time or occasional help. I have ten years experience pet sitting, dogs and cats, and I am especially wonderful with feisty senior dogs.

Did a great job, very kind and professional

Hi l'm julyanna! I just recently graduated class of 2025 and l am looking for a job mainly involving kids because I’ve always had a strong passion for working with children and being able to be there for them by giving a safe and fun space. i want to be able to impact there lives positively and help guide them in the right direction. i have experience babysitting my 6 year old sister as she grew up as well as my 10 year old cousin. My mom's a teacher at an elementary school and I've gone to volunteer and help at my mom's job. I want more experience in the field of children caretaking because one day I'm hoping to be an au pair or maybe even a teacher like my mom. I'm 19 years old and I love dancing, writing, poetry, and the beach. I don’t have a car but I have reliable transportation. I’m willing to adjust to the needs of a child and there family in order to create a healthy relationship even if it’s long or short term.
