Special needs caregivers in Jamestown, MO
I provide pet sitting in your own home; I love all animals. I can come to you when babysitting is needed; if you need a nanny I can help with that too. I enjoy helping kids with homework and can shuttle back and forth to practices or lessons. I have experience and many patience in helping MR/DD individuals and kidos.
