Hello Parents! :) My name is Iruoma, and I’m a pre-med college student studying neuroscience. I have 5+ years of experience ranging from leading church ministry, taking care of my younger siblings, and starting and running a nonprofit that helps children with sickle cell. I am CPR certified and bilingual (Spanish). I absolutely love working with kids and creating a fun and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and cared for. I’m kind, reliable, and very attentive, and I will always treat your children with the same patience, protection, love, and care I would give my own family.

$14 per hour for 1 child

I am a nursing student with hands-on clinical experience providing compassionate, safe, and attentive care across diverse settings. Through my nursing clinicals, I have developed strong skills in observation, organization, communication, and responding calmly in both routine and unexpected situations. I am dependable, patient, and detail-oriented, with a strong focus on safety and comfort. In addition to healthcare, I have over 20 years of experience working in large animal shelters caring for 200+ animals at a time. This includes feeding, medication administration, monitoring behavior and health changes, cleaning, and providing enrichment. I am also a dedicated cat owner and very comfortable caring for pets of all ages and temperaments. I bring professionalism, warmth, and reliability to every caregiving role and treat families, children, seniors, and pets with the same level of respect and care I provide in clinical settings.
