Hiya! I hold National Board Certification in Early Childhood, an active AZ Teaching License, and a handful of other education licenses!

“Caroline helped to babysit our 15 month toddler for two days. It’s like having your private ms Rachel at home. She’s energetic and very patient with our fussy toddler. She also understands baby’s needs and provides good suggestions to parents. Will hire her again! ”
Hi my name is Sophia! I am currently a student at MHCC studying for nursing! I am offering child, senior, and pet care as well as some house keeping. I have been working in assisted memory senior care as an in-home care giver and also in a facility for about 5 years now. There, I prepared food, I did transferring, changes, cleaning, showering, medical applications, monitoring, feeding and behavioral and mental health as well. I don’t have much experience with children other than babysitting my nieces and nephew(toddlers and older)a little bit when I was younger but I really want to have more experience and learn more since I am currently taking a course on child development for my studies. I love children and I hope to learn more on how to care for them and how to do it well in the physical and mental aspects. I will try my best to provide a good and healthy environment for the children so they can learn and be their best selves. I have only learned to cook and clean at home and I find myself to be organized and a good thorough cleaner. So I don’t mind to offer some of my services in that! I grew up with dogs and caring for them and I love them so much as well as cats! I currently have two lovely cats and have lots of experience with cats as well. I am happy to offer dog or cat sitting services as well.

I’m reliable, patient, and always focused on creating a positive and safe space for kids to be themselves.
