Passionate About Kids, Committed to Care — Future Pharmacist with Real-World Experience

Hi! My name is Edwina, and I’m an 18-year-old college student studying to become a pharmacist. I currently work as a Teacher Aide at Grace Early Learning Center, where I support children’s learning, growth, and daily care routines. I’ve always had a passion for helping others—especially kids—and I treat every child I work with as if they were my own. I’m also experienced in customer service and team collaboration, which has helped me develop strong communication, organization, and time management skills. In the future, I hope to adopt, so every opportunity to care for children means a lot to me both personally and professionally.

Hello! I am a 13 year old teenage babysitter!

Babysitting profile:

Hello! My name is Bethania. I am a 13-year-old teenage babysitter. I love kids and have been around kids almost my whole life, so I have very good experience, especially as an older sister and cousin! I always make sure safety comes first. The safety of your children is very important to me. I will always make sure your children are entertained and safe!

I am capable of doing things such as cleaning up the house, making simple meals/snacks, chores, etc. I am very pet-friendly. I am not CPR certified, but I did take a CPR class, so I do know how to perform CPR. I also took a cooking class, so I know all about choking hazards and how to make the best meals!

I am very reliable and punctual. You can count on me to show up on time and be fully prepared to take care of your children. I love engaging with kids through fun and educational activities. Whether it's playing games, helping with homework, or doing arts and crafts, I always ensure that your children are having a great time while learning.

I believe in open communication with parents. I will always keep you updated on how your children are doing and if there are any concerns. I regularly read up on the best practices and tips for babysitting to ensure I provide the best care possible.

I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and watching them grow and learn. Babysitting is not just a job for me, it's something I am passionate about. I love taking care of children so much and it is so amazing how you can do something you love so much while getting paid to do it! I look forward to the opportunity to take care of your children!

Availability: My availability mainly depends on you, and when you need me. If you need me throughout the whole week, I can check/fix my schedule and make it work for you, but I guarantee I am available on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends!

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Dog Walker

Follow these handy tips for hiring a dog walker so you know your pup is in safe, reliable hands.

1. Check experience

Look for walkers who have worked with dogs of similar size, breed, and temperament.

2. Verify credentials

Ask about pet first aid/CPR certification and whether they’re insured and bonded.

3. Request references

Speak to past or current clients for honest feedback.

4. Meet in person

Arrange a meet-and-greet to see how your dog responds to them.

5. Discuss routines

Ensure they can stick to your dog’s feeding, walking, and medication schedule.

6. Ask about group walks

Clarify whether they walk multiple dogs at once or provide solo walks.

7. Check reliability

Confirm their backup plan in case they’re sick or unavailable.

8. Look for communication

Choose someone who provides updates, photos, or reports after walks.

9. Test with a trial walk

Start with a short session to assess how your dog and the walker get along.

10. Clarify policies

Go over payment, cancellations, keys/access to your home, and emergency procedures.
