Hey, its Jenna! I am a 21-year-old who loves to care for people. I am great with animals, kids, and seniors.
I cared for my grandmother after her major spine surgery when she was unable to walk, get up, etc. I am more than capable of personal help for seniors, cleaning/chores, errand running, etc. I'm a catch, so I can also just be a friendly face for a lonely senior including but not limited to meal prepping, daily hangouts, going to movies, going on walks, any small activities they enjoy as I do have my own source of reliable transportation, and will always be available for an outing. My mother-in-law may not be a senior, but she is in very bad health in which I do the tasks above on a daily basis.
I have a 3-and-a-half-year-old stepdaughter whom I met at 10 months old, making me very well versed in teaching reading skills, writing skills, colors, shapes, letters, and outside play for younger developing children. I met my stepbrother at the age of 5 years old, in which he is now 9. I have been responsible for school pick up and drop off, overnights alone, homework help, etc. I have always been the designated babysitter since I was a child. I do love caring for children more than most things in life, I promote learning and creativity over starring at screens all day. I am also open to at home day care services, especially on Friday-Monday as I have my stepdaughter who loves making friends those days. (Single story 2150 square foot home in Cadence.) I am very patient when it comes to children, pets, and seniors. My main passion is watching and caring for children, which I have done through the years. I did become a babysitter for a family with 3 kids; one 7-month-old, one 2-year-old, and one autistic 8-year-old boy. I worked for this family for a couple years on and off whenever they needed me, including afternoon to midnight shifts.
I am great with many pets including reptiles, insects, dogs, cats, arachnids, etc. I have worked for a holistic pet store on and off for 4 years. Sloppy Kisses Pet Store is located locally here in Nevada, in which I've handled roaches, worms, crickets, rats, mice, fish, etc. I personally own a 5-foot Ball Python, and a red barred panther chameleon, along with my cat Cleo and my dog Duke. I personally take a lot of pride in all animals' health, safety, and diet. I have rescued animals my whole life and honestly have never been without pets.
If you made it this far, I look forward to hearing from you.
Toodles!
