I have done multiple babysitting jobs for multiple families. I am currently working at a day care part time while I am still taking classes for Early Childhood Education to work with special needs children.

Hi, I'm Cassie, a dedicated caregiver with over 15 years of experience. My passion for caregiving began accidentally when I got an overnight position with a local care company during college. As I built relationships with my clients and started working in new homes, I realized that not only did I love going to work, but I looked forward to it. I am patient, compassionate, and reliable, and I always take the time to listen and understand each individual's unique needs. I am skilled in managing meal preparation, transportation, medication management, personal hygiene, and housekeeping. I also have experience working with individuals with disabilities and special needs. I take pride in being a caregiver and believe that it is a rewarding and fulfilling profession. I am committed to providing exceptional care and support to my clients and their families. Building positive relationships with my clients is essential, which is why I always strive to maintain open and honest communication.
