Donia $20 per hour for 1 child
Hello my name is Donia and I am a student here in Richmond. I have extensive experience working with children and seniors, and will be offering care services for both. I have been a summer camp counselor for multiple years, as well as a vacation bible school and Sunday school teacher, So I can confidently say I have a great amount of experience with children from around the ages of 4-15! I have also been a CNA for two years in a senior care facility, as well as a sitter for one year, so I also am experienced with seniors.
