Hi there! I’m glad to share details about my work with children, seniors, and pets. Here’s a summary: *I have worked as an ABA therapist, caring for three children, two of whom required autism therapy and support. * My schedule is quite flexible, especially on evenings and weekends. *I was as a teacher and counselor for a preschool, and I really enjoyed it! *I am glad to offer support and care for your family’s needs, including youth and adults that are Specially Abled. * I’m glad to provide tutoring and homework support, especially for younger children in elementary and middle school. * My major in college was Spanish language, so I’m glad to help with courses as well. I’m especially happy to help with essay writing and related projects. * I know that laundry piles up, so I’m glad to lend a hand with this and other household chores. * I was a caregiver for my grandmother and also for family members with young children. * I’m a dog mom for 20+ years, and glad to offer care for your four-legged friends as well, including walking, feeding, and special care that might be needed.

Monique $25 per hour for 1 child
I am a reliable, trustworthy, and caring babysitter with experience providing attentive and compassionate care for children of different ages and needs. I prioritize each child’s safety, comfort, and well-being while creating a fun, positive, and supportive environment. I have experience caring for children with autism and understand the importance of patience, consistency, clear communication, and individualized attention. I am comfortable following established routines, assisting with daily activities, and providing reassurance when a child becomes overwhelmed or needs additional support. Parents can feel confident knowing their children are in caring and dependable hands. I take my responsibilities seriously and treat every child with kindness, respect, and understanding.

Tempest $20 per hour for 1 child
Hello! My name is Tempest! I am 22 and a recent graduate from Charleston Southern University. As I am looking for a more professional and full-time position, I would love to help families out part-time! I love to hang out with kids ranging anywhere from infants to middle schoolers and be able to provide any needs that they have. I enjoy doing fun and creative activities and being outside! I grew up with 7 younger siblings and have been taking care of kids since I was 13. I have worked with kids in a variety of settings like volunteering at my church, leading groups of kids at sports camps, and giving my time for individual families and friends. I can be responsible for household tasks like cleaning and cooking. I am also willing to step in and provide help with homework need be!
