Hello there! My name is Claire and I would love to provide you with unconditional care for your children and/or pets. Regarding my expertise with kids: I have over seven years of experience working with children, and youth of all ages. I graduated from Portland State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Child and Family Studies. I also have my masters degree in school counseling, so socioemotional well being of children is often at the forefront of my mind. I have worked at non-profits advocating for youth such as My Voice Music, Portland Homeless Family Solutions, and many more. I also have mentored, tutored, and counseled youth throughout my career. I believe that all young people deserve the opportunity to thrive in a society that supports them. I am also an education advocate, and a school counselor part time. Regarding pets, I have experience taking care of dogs, Read more cats, and rabbits over pet sitting apps. I look forward to working with you and your children and/or pets!
