My name is Theresa and I have well over 23 years of experience caring for young children, toddlers and Infants. I have experience and knowledge of child cognitive, social skills development methods and techniques. I have extensive experience in reading, play and quiet time activities. I have in-depth child supervision skills of all ages. Recently, I have cared for a 6 week infant up until 6 months when he was ready for daycare. I also cared for a 2 month old up until he turned 1 and was ready for daycare. I cleaned and sterilized bottles, bottle fed, changed diapers, prepared baby for nap time, interacted in child play and tummy time, story time, played classical music, and taught cognitive skills. I have cared for two mentally and physically handicapped children for five years. I prepared meals, fed, changed, bathed, administered medication, did laundry and dressed them for bed. I Read more also tutored an 11 year old girl with special needs for four years. I picked her up from the school bus, prepared after school snacks, and helped her with her homework. I was her tutor and I prepared her for her tests. She received high honors for the four years that I cared for her. I also watched three young boys, ages ranging from 3-12, for four years. I did homework, food preparation, transportation to and from sports games, and did various outdoors activities with them. Based on my experience, I feel I would be a perfect candidate to work with your family. I am dedicated to provide compassionate home care for those in need, with affordable rates. I am hard-working, honest, reliable, and I take pride in what I do. I am ready to take on new challenges and responsibilities and I am dedicated to providing the best quality of care possible while, constantly striving for excellence. I believe it is best to work together as a team with the family to obtain optimal success in all areas for the best interest of the children and or parents. Each individualized comprehensive care plan will be designed to assess the individuals current strengths and developments so we can recommend and build upon those strengths to achieve desired outcomes for your loved ones. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and I have a clean driving record. I am also willing to travel. Resume, references, and letters of recommendations can be furnished upon request. Thank you in advance, Theresa

We are delighted to write a glowing review for Theresa, who took exceptional care of our baby from 6 weeks to 5 months old. Theresa has been a nurturing and caring presence in our home, ensuring that our little one received the best possible care during this crucial period. Theresa took the time to teach rhymes, engage in tummy time, and maintain a clean and hygienic environment for our child. Her attention to detail in keeping our baby clean and comfortable was truly remarkable. In addition to her nurturing care, Theresa also handled all baby-related chores with great efficiency. She diligently cleaned bottles, maintained an organized nursery etc.. This allowed us to focus on our work without any worries, knowing that our baby was in capable hands. Theresa was always on time, which made our daily routines smooth and predictable. Her reliability was invaluable to us as working parents. Beyond her professional skills, Theresa brought a warm and positive energy into our home. Her genuine affection for our baby and cheerful demeanor made each day a joy. She quickly became a trusted member of our family. In summary, Theresa exceeded all our expectations and provided outstanding care for our baby. Her nurturing nature, attention to detail, and reliability make her an excellent choice for any family seeking a loving and competent caregiver. We highly recommend her.

If you have the opportunity to work with Theresa as a caretaker for any age, you will be very pleased. Theresa is kind, reliable, keeps an open line of communication and was flexible when we needed her. She recently cared for my 87 year old mother. Theresa went above and beyond in her last days of caring for her (my mom passed). She took her to last minute doctor appointments, stayed overnight with her when she felt my mom needed someone there with her (which was not on her schedule to do), made her food and just took extra good care of her in general. I had such peace of mind when Theresa was caring for my mom while I was working full time. I would highly recommend her for any of your caregiving needs.

Theresa provided comapanion care for my mother and I felt I could always trust and rely on her. She was also a very good conversationalist and very kind. When my mom was sick and in the hospital for several weeks, Theresa was very flexible and came to the hospital to be with her there also.
