A Helping Hand

Care Services & Rates

 

I offer a range of care services, including child care for all ages, special needs care, elderly care, errand running, house/room sitting, and pet sitting. At this time, my primary focus is on infant care, children 5+, special needs care (as a Developmental Autism Specialist trained in DIR Floortime), and elderly care.

 

I am CPR, First Aid, and AED certified, as well as medically assisting certified. I have extensive experience with allergies, asthma, autism, ADHD, and a wide variety of other medical conditions. Additionally, I have a valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, a clean criminal and driving record, and am available on Care.com. I also have experience with a variety of animals and am confident in providing care for all your needs.

 

I am fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and TB-free.
