I’m a responsible and caring student with hands-on experience supporting both children and animals. While I don’t have formal childcare certifications yet, I’ve spent meaningful time helping care for my younger cousins—assisting with playtime, cleanup, and meal preparation. I’m patient, adaptable, and comfortable handling everyday routines that help kids feel safe and supported. I also offer elementary and middle school tutoring services, helping kids grasp concepts using examples and hands on learning experiences.
As a lifelong pet owner, I bring deep familiarity with a wide range of animals and their specific needs. I currently care for three dogs, two birds, a rabbit, and 21 chickens, and I’m confident in feeding routines, habitat maintenance, and recognizing signs of stress or illness. Whether it’s daily exercise, grooming, or specialized care, I’m committed to keeping pets happy and healthy.
I’m eager to offer dependable support to families in need of childcare or pet care, and I approach every task with attention to detail and a genuine love for helping others.
