"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Ashley $16 per hour for 1 child
Hey there! My name is Ashley! I have been working with children, seniors, and disabled adults for 17 years now. As a teen I was the primary caregiver for my disabled grandmother and once she passed away I became a licensed massage therapist. Since then I have been working almost exclusively with disabled individuals of all ages and abilities. I have a huge passion for early childhood development and love to assist families in whatever ways I can. Outside of that I have babysat frequently for friends of the family and people I have met throughout my career. I am no stranger to cleaning, cooking, feeding, toileting, or assisting with any activity you or your loved one may need help with. Feel free to ask any questions you may have! I also have a current/valid CPR Certification for adults, children, and infants.
