Hello! I am Kierra, I am currently a sophomore at Sam Houston, studying psychology with a minor in applied behavioral analysis. I plan to one day become a child psychologist specializing in childhood trauma. I am the eldest daughter with 3 younger siblings, as well as over 20 cousins, so I have plenty of experience with childcare. I currently work at a hospital as a phlebotomist so I have first aid experience, as well as experience with seniors. I have no problem with cooking, cleaning, helping with homework, working through hard emotions, and having plenty of fun! I have 2 cats, and I helped dog sit through out high-school!
Hi everyone! 👋🏾 I offer caregiving services for children, seniors, pets, and household services. With over 9 years of caregiving experience, I’ve developed a deep passion for supporting others and tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual or pet in my care. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to older kids, and I’m actively involved in the lives of my nieces and nephews (ages 3-10 ). One of my most cherished memories is helping care for my premature twin niece and nephew. I love tailoring my care to match the personalities of the children I work with, whether it’s engaging in gaming sessions or hosting fun dance parties. Ensuring a safe, nurturing environment is always my priority. I create fun and educational experiences that cater to each child’s interests. I believe in engaging kids with screen-free activities think arts and crafts, outdoor play, and fun science experiments! I absolutely love watching their favorite movies & tv shows with them also. For seniors, I offer companionship and assist with daily tasks like meal prep, showering, and dressing. I started my caregiving journey by caring for an elderly family friend, which instilled in me the values of patience, empathy, and attentiveness. I aim to create positive interactions that enrich their lives, whether through meaningful conversations or favorite activities. I’m also passionate about pets, offering services such as walking, feeding, and playtime. I treat pets like family, ensuring they feel loved and secure while their owners are away. I’m outgoing, detail-oriented, and value clear communication. My faith guides me to approach caregiving with joy, peace, and purpose. I also offer household services like cleaning and organizing, and I’m CPR-certified with a valid driver’s license. I’m available for both full-time and part-time work, including evenings and weekends. I’m available for flexible scheduling, including last-minute requests. I am happy to be here! If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m more than happy to talk on the phone also. Looking forward to the opportunity to connect and help out! I look forward to creating joyful, meaningful and memorable experiences with your family!
