Hello! My name is Yuliana, and I am a university student. I have been working as a substitute teacher and teacher’s assistant at different childcare centers since 2024, where I have gained experience caring for infants and toddlers. I also have previous babysitting experience, and I completed a high school internship at an elementary school as a Spanish teacher’s assistant. I am caring, patient, and responsible. I enjoy playing with children and doing educational activities that help them learn and develop their skills while having fun. I also offer pet care. Although I don’t have professional experience as a pet sitter, I love animals and am comfortable following instructions for feeding, walking, and general care.
