"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

I have 4 younger siblings that I have helped take care of my whole life. I have babysat for multiple different families in my home town. The most kids I have watched was 4 at a time! I also sit every now and then for one family currently. They ask me if I’m available and we go from there! I also help with household chores and make dinner. I’m fun loving and silly while also stern and I like to make sure I do things just as the parents ask. I’m creative with activities and games. I’m 27 without kids just yet, just trying to earn extra money where I can. I have a my CPR certification. I have also house sat and pet sat plenty of times. I am trustworthy and kind. House pick up and plant care is great! I work at a plant and tree nursery, so I’m not afraid of the dirt and I know a bit about plants.
Amelia $17 per hour for 1 child
Hello, my name is Amelia and I'm offering child care, senior care, and pet care. I come from a big family so I have experience with infants/toddlers. I use to work at a facility helping those with dementia. I started caregiving as a teenager and have also worked in private home care. I assisted with toileting, bathing, showering, preparing meals, helping with physical therapy. I have 5 cats so I wouldn't mind taking care of more! I've helped cared for dogs and birds for previous clients. I also don't mind doing light or deep cleaning around the house, and is willing to house sit.
