1320 East Avenue Q Palmdale, CA

< 1 mi

I was recently forced to quit my job due to not having a babysitter myself. I have raised kids my entire life gaining invaluable knowledge of childcare, so I decided why not employ myself in a field I love and appreciate. Being a parent of 2 young children myself, 5 year old and 10 month old, I know the struggle of finding a person to confide in for caring after children. I also understand how hard it can be to find a person willing to care for an infant as well and I am here for you. I only have room for 2 extra children in my car. If it is 2 kids or less I'm willing to offer drop off/pick up services. Whether you need me to pick up your children while you are getting ready for work, dropping them off for school, picking them up whatever the case may be. If you need me to do a store run and grab some items for dinner, pet food, etc. I know firsthand, how busy a working parent is, just let me know what you want and we may be able to work something out. I also have learning materials such as flashcards and workbooks if you would like me to engage in classroom activities. Having 2 young children myself, I have dealt with plenty of tummy-aches, fevers, coughs etc, so I have a great deal of knowledge in care and administering medicine if needed. I have access to internet and Netflix if it is allowed for your children and am willing to help out with homework. I have no other obligations which leaves my schedule open. I am a fairly decent cook and do not mind feeding your children. I do not intend on charging a fortune, as I truly enjoy children and the experiences that they bring. I live in a small apartment complex, less than 25 units, and is full of wonderful families. I am willing to schedule home visits before-hand. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any further inquiries. - Gennie
