About Barbie

I am a caring, adaptable, and communicative person with experience working with both children, dogs, and cats. I'm looking for a job that I can form a continuous and genuine relationship with the family, with the understanding that it will transition to occasional babysitting. As a former teacher and teaching assistant with experience supporting students with special needs, I understand the importance of patience, active listening, and meeting a child where they are. I treat every child with respect, and I believe this leads to them developing confidence and critical thinking skills at any age. Encouraging children to be who they are and learn is incredibly meaningful. I'm ready to help with your home. I enjoy cooking (I do not cook pork/shellfish), and can fold laundry and pitch in with light household tasks. I'm also a dog owner, with my leash-reactive fur baby, Padfoot. I'm more than excited to provide walks, playtime, food, companionship, and care tailored to what your pet.
