Hello! My name is Joyce! I have 4 years of volunteer experience in the children's ministry at church, of caring for infants through 13 years old. Additionally, I have a year of experience as a foster care support sitter. I am open to pet sitting, small sized dogs and cats, as well as light housekeeping and senior care. I have a reliable vehicle, and am a non-smoker. My schedule is flexible. I work 100% remote, and would prefer something part time/occassional. However, full time may work if it fits my schedule! Please feel free to reach out and we can discuss. I enjoy reading, traveling and learning new things! I am currently taking up sewing, and learning Spanish! I believe a child's gifts should be strengthened. I love to implement new activities, such as puzzles, reading books, arts & crafts, board games, cooking etc. Playing and learning are crucial for kids! I can pick up/drop off, take to the park etc. For seniors, I am willing to run errands, drop off to appointments, light housecleaning (dishes, vacuum, laundry).
“If I can give Joy six stars, I definitely would. She is extremely punctual and a great communicator. My kids instantly felt comfortable around her. I’m a stay at home mom and don’t really like people I don’t know watching my children, but starting with the interview me and my husband both felt very confident that she would do an amazing job. I love how she plays pretend when my children are being a little difficult and does activities with them. 100% recommend her.”
I was caregiver to Roberta Newton for two plus years.Renal failure and Cancer diagnosis. I am Patient and Understanding as well as empathetic. I have children of my own one of whom presently reside with me.. My mother died of Cancer also and not having the money me and my sister had to care for her until her passing. That was my first experience...three months until she left this place. Have had many dogs in my lifetime and know their habits and behaviors pretty well. Roberta required full live in care services so I got very knowledgeable of proper care and needs to be aware of as well as how to deescalate and or give space as needed... making sure all appointments were kept and medication picked up and administered accordingly. Hygiene upkeep, freshly made beds, washing linens regularly etc.

Hi! My name is Jada, and I am 28 years old. I have many years of experience caring for children and a genuine passion for helping families. Before becoming a stay-at-home mom, I worked full-time in a preschool/daycare setting for 3 years, where I cared for children ranging from newborns to toddlers. I am currently a stay-at-home mom to my two sons, ages 6 years old and 14 months old. My days are filled with providing a safe, nurturing, and structured environment for them, including caring for my youngest at home and taking my oldest to and from school. Being a mother has strengthened my patience, understanding, and ability to meet the unique needs of children at different developmental stages. I would love the opportunity to bring that same level of care, love, and reliability to your family. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and dependable to help with your children, and I would be honored to provide support while ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for.
