Hi! My name is Ashley, and I'm a part-time caregiver currently studying full-time to earn my degree in Early Childhood Education, with plans to pursue a career in social work. I'm CPR certified and have years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, both professionally and as the oldest in a large family (aka the "fun aunt" and built-in babysitter!). I provide loving, dependable childcare along with light housekeeping, meal prep, transportation, and homework help. I believe in creating a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where kids can thrive, whether that's through creative play, school support, or just being a calm, consistent presence. I'm passionate about helping children feel seen, safe, and encouraged to be themselves. I'm also flexible, reliable, and always ready to play a game, read a book, or lend a hand where it's needed. Let's connect and see if I'd be a good fit for your family!
It is only with great sorrow that I write this review, and only because Ashley deserves to find a great family back home. That said, I'm not happy to be helping her find a new job, when she is such a good fit with her family. I wish she was staying in California, but she's such a great family person, she misses her own family and young siblings too much to stay out here. She's leaving us at the end of this month, and I've been pretending it wasn't going to happen. She has been an asset to our lives, and has become part of our family. Our three boys love her, and she loves them. She is not afraid to hold them accountable and makes sure all homework is done, and they are delivered to where they need to be. She is extremely flexible with last minute practice changes, or if I forget something, she picks up the slack. She also is game to take the boys out to dinner or on a fun outing. She even came up with a behavior incentive plan to motivate my boys to stay respectful, well mannered, and follow directions. She is exactly what I was looking for, and I selfishly hope she stays here.
