A little bit about me

I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with experience as both a Home Health Aide (HHA) and Personal Care Assistant (PCA). I am also a proud mother to a 4-month-old daughter, which has strengthened my skills in nurturing and caring for children. I have reliable transportation arrangements to get to and from work, even without a personal vehicle at the moment.

With hands-on experience in both caregiving and childcare, I bring patience, empathy, and strong interpersonal skills to every role. I genuinely enjoy working with children, building positive relationships, and ensuring they feel safe, cared for, and supported. Given my experience and dedication, I am seeking opportunities that offer $20+ per hour.
