Affordable, Experienced Childcare + Homework Help | Pets Welcome

Hi! I’m Michael, and I’m offering dependable, affordable childcare and household help to families throughout the Coachella Valley, Hemet, Joshua Tree, Yucca Valley, and 29 Palms areas.

I have an associate degree with a focus on child development and psychology, along with pre nursing coursework. I especially enjoy working with elementary and middle school aged kids and can help with homework, reading, writing, math, studying, school projects, and organization. I’m patient when kids are struggling with something and try to help them actually understand it and build confidence rather than just get the assignment finished.

I also spent five years as a manager at Petco, so homes with animals are absolutely welcome. I have extensive experience with dogs, cats, animal behavior, feeding routines, medications, and general pet care.

Professionally, I’m the co owner of a housekeeping company and co founder of a nonprofit organization, so I’m very accustomed to being trusted inside people’s homes and taking that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, organized, respectful of privacy, comfortable following detailed routines, and happy to communicate with parents throughout the day if that helps you feel more comfortable.

I can help with:

• Babysitting and childcare
• Homework and schoolwork assistance
• After school care
• Date nights and occasional care
• Pet sitting and pet care
• Light housekeeping and tidying
• Meal preparation
• Organization
• Errands and household assistance
• Senior companionship
• House sitting

I’m intentionally trying to keep my services affordable and accessible, especially for working parents and families who may need an extra set of hands but cannot justify extremely expensive childcare rates. Other household and caregiving services can be priced based on what you actually need.

Most importantly, I want your children to feel comfortable with me. I’m warm, patient, engaged, and happy to read, play, work on homework, talk about their interests, or simply provide a calm and safe presence while you’re away.

If you’re looking for reliable help, even if your needs are a little unconventional, feel free to message me and tell me what your family needs. I’m happy to see if I can help.
