Hi! I’m Zeynep and I provide childcare, pet care, and elder care services. I have a bachelor’s degree in Child Development and about 7 years of experience working with children. I have worked in kindergartens, schools, hospitals, orphanages, and special education centers through internships. For the last 1.5 years, I have been taking care of children in the United States. I mostly work with children who are 2 years old and older. My duties have included driving children to school, classes, or appointments, preparing healthy meals and snacks, organizing play and storage areas, making arts and crafts, helping with homework, and doing light cleaning related to children. I also helped take care of my grandmother and have experience with elder care, such as helping with bathing, nail care, and preparing healthy meals. I enjoy talking and spending time with elderly people. I love animals, especially cats. I have two cats, so I have experience with cat care. I don’t have dog care experience, but I am happy to work with families who have dogs. I am responsible, caring, and love creating a safe and happy environment for children and seniors!
