About Iris
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi! My name is Iris. I'm a huge animal lover! I hold a PhD in Molecular and Cell Biology from UC Berkeley and have been a research scientist and science educator for over 18 years. Currently, I am on summer break from teaching and am available to provide childcare and pet care services. Growing up on a farm, I had the joy of caring for a variety of animals. For the past 5 years, I've volunteered with an animal rescue organization, where I provide emergency medical care for critical cases. This experience has honed my skills in handling a wide range of animal care situations. I now live in Somerset, New Jersey, where I share my home with three lovely cats. My life has always revolved around nurturing and caring, whether it's for animals or children. In addition, I am CPR AED and First Aid Certified. I am meticulous in following care instructions, and will make sure your child or pet is safe. I look forward to meeting you and learning how I can help. Iris

Iris is fabulous with animals. My dog Elsa gets so excited every time she sees her and even our cats who normally hide when new people come around are very curious and come out to get gentle pets from Iris
