Hi! My name is Saroya, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who truly enjoys working with children. I’ve loved caring for kids since I was 15, and I have experience helping with working with children in a professional setting and babysitting, which has helped me become patient, attentive, and understanding. I’m comfortable with tasks like preparing simple meals, helping with homework, and keeping kids entertained in a safe and positive environment. I always make sure to follow parents’ instructions closely and prioritize children’s safety and well-being. In addition to babysitting, I also offer other services such as light housekeeping and pet sitting, so I’m happy to help out wherever needed to make things easier for your family. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and create a safe, fun environment for your children
