About Tessa

Experience: 5 yrs

I'm the oldest sibling and one of the older cousins in a big family. I grew up babysitting for family and lots of the neighborhood kids. I definitely think I'm a kid at heart, and love to be creative and have fun! I used to babysit, and pet sit a lot a couple years ago, but stopped when I started working full time. My home growing up always had tons of animals. I've mostly had dogs my entire life, I am absolutely a dog lover!!! I've had some skittish problematic dogs in my life too, so I'm great with pets that are shy and scared. I'm great with cats too, and also guinea pigs and hamsters. I worked as a head pastry chef through the whole pandemic, I'm taking a break from the Industry for a bit and am looking to make some extra money to help ends meet. So I definitely know how to cook and cleanup after myself!

Tessa provided after-school care to our two elementary-aged boys all year long and has been fantastic! She is an excellent communicator, always dependable, arrives early, flexible, and willing to go the extra mile. She was hands-on with our boys, helping with homework, snacks, did crafts, baked, and played with them routinely. She also helped with the dog while watching the boys. As a parent working full time, Tessa exceeded my expectations and I never worried about the safety of my children. I highly recommend her!
