Trusted Care for Kids & Pets | Experienced, Compassionate, and Ready to Help!
Hi! I’m 27 years old and have spent my entire life surrounded by both animals and children—two things I truly love caring for. I’ve owned and cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including hamsters, birds, cats, dogs, and even turtles. I also have experience with reptiles and farm animals, so I’m comfortable handling all kinds of personalities, routines, and care needs.
Being the oldest of six siblings, I naturally grew up helping care for children and taking on a nurturing, responsible role from a young age. That experience shaped who I am today—someone who is patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys creating a safe, positive environment for others.
At my core, I just want to be a source of good in the world. I believe you never truly know what someone else may be going through or what kind of support they might need, and I take pride in being someone others can trust and rely on—whether that’s for their children, their pets, or their peace of mind.

I am a highly experienced and dependable caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and animal care. Since 2018, I have worked in caregiving roles, including in assisted living facilities, where I developed hands-on experience supporting individuals with a wide range of needs. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), having earned my certification in 2018 through a technical school program during my senior year of high school. In 2019, I became a registered Direct Support Professional (DSP), and I currently serve as a caretaker and house manager for individuals with intellectual and physical disabilities. This role has strengthened my skills in responsibility, patience, safety awareness, and compassionate care.
I am fully trained in CPR, general first aid, and infant first aid, and I also have asthma care training. I always carry a well-stocked first aid kit to ensure preparedness in any situation. I am a non-smoker and non-vaper, COVID vaccinated, and a permanent resident.
In addition, I have a valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and emergency vehicle access, allowing me to respond quickly and handle transportation needs safely. My experience, certifications, and commitment to safety make me well-qualified to care for both children and animals with attentiveness and professionalism.
