Babysitting, Art Help, and Pet Care With Real Heart
Hi! I’m someone who really loves teaching the things I’m passionate about, especially art, and I enjoy helping kids learn new things in a fun and patient way. I’ve been around animals my whole life and, honestly, I love all kinds. I always treat every pet with the same care I give my own dog, Foxy, who’s basically like my baby. I’m also a strong swimmer and can help teach basic swimming skills. I’ve spent a lot of time babysitting family members and being around kids of different ages, and I always try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and supported. Whether it’s helping with creative activities, keeping them entertained, or making sure everything stays calm and smooth, I put a lot of care into it. Teaching, working with animals, and interacting with kids are things I genuinely enjoy, and I always bring that energy into everything I do.
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time, Full-time employment.
I can travel to surrounding suburbs/towns of Bridgeport for work.

I have many years of experience taking care of different pets, including my own Yorkie Terrier who I treat like my baby, and two mixed-breed dogs (part French Poodle) in Bedford, NY for a family my parents have known for a long time. I also worked at the Cardinal Shehan Center in Bridgeport as a camp counselor for a full summer, supervising kids ages 4–10 during gym, cooking, and dance activities, keeping them safe during transitions, communicating with staff and through walkie-talkies, and helping with first aid when needed. I can swim, and I’m comfortable teaching basic swimming skills. I’m bilingual in Spanish since it's my second language, and I enjoy helping others learn it. I also love teaching art, and I’m currently studying for my BFA at UConn. I’ve babysat for my own family members and have experience working with kids, and I’d love the opportunity to babysit and help out in any way I can.
