Iβve had the pleasure of working with kids of all ages and truly enjoy the connections I build with each family I work with. Additionally, I am pet-friendly and comfortable around animals, as I own a dog myself. I understand how important it is to make sure your pets are also cared for, so I can offer pet-sitting services as well if needed. With my experience, strong work ethic, and nurturing approach, I strive to ensure that you feel confident and at ease when leaving your children in my care. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family!
