I am a mother to three beautiful girls ages 13, 22, and 26. I also have an adorable 1.5 yr old grandson whom I spend a lot of time with. I have been working as a caregiver for seniors for the past two years. I love working with and helping people of all ages. I practice patience, kindness, and love in everything I do ❤️ I provide care for a senior on Mondays and Fridays, so my availability is limited to Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I am currently booked with a family through May, but will be available to additional families beginning in June.

Suzanne is thoughtful and comes with a plan for the day . She is organized and it’s been a joy to work with her

Hi my name is Keisha I’m 26 years old I have 7 years experience in babysitting and nannying exclusively. I have worked for infants as young as 4 months old and children as old as 12 years old. I’m very passionate in working with children and infants I feel it is important to have positive role models to influence children’s behavior in a positive way and I really strive to be that positive role model. I don’t mind cleaning or doing light housework. Looking for something long term.

Keisha was absolutely fantastic and my two boys loved her!! We will definitely ask her to babysit again.
