My background consists of child and pet care. i grew up babysitting my sisters for my parents date nights, watching the neighbors kids, and now during summer and breaks i watch kids full time! i have experience with infants and toddlers, as well as older children. Im a good cook and am fine with cleaning up the house whenever you need while watching the kids! I am adult and child/infant CPR certified and i’m certified in child developmental reading. I also have my license, so i’m able to run errands or pick up kids from school. *if interested, we would have to set up an interview just so i could get to know you and your family before i’d start!*

Hello all, I am a licensed and certified ELA teacher, with a BA in Sociology and Master’s degree in Education. I have many certifications ranging from geriatric care to swim instructor, and have worked as a teacher, private tutor, home educator, family au pair, and more. I have just moved back to Tennessee from California, and am looking to help families in the area. I am great with animals, children, and plants! I enjoy the outdoors and being active, and have a passion for inspiring others to grow. I am open to supporting families doing anything from plant care, pet care, child care, elderly care, house work, cleaning, tutoring, homework help, and swim lessons. I hope we can connect, and work together to bring harmony, joy and peace to your family lives! Please inquire about any possible opportunities! Blessings!

Hi - My name is Patricia and I'm currently a senior in Memphis. I am offering childcare for my grandchildren and others in my neighborhood. I love being a babysitter and have been watching my newest grandchild this year. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs.
