About Dakota

I'm a father of two and grew up in foster care, which shaped a deep understanding of how much kids benefit from patience, encouragement, structure, and being truly seen. I've always wanted to be a positive and steady influence in a child's life. I'm a full-time traveling musician when I'm not working, and I would love to share music and creativity with kids -- including offering free beginner guitar lessons if that's something your family would enjoy. I understand that it's less common for families to hire a male caretaker, but I believe my background, reliability, and gentle approach speak for themselves. I show up with respect, consistency, and genuine care. Whether it's maintaining a home or helping a child grow, I treat both with attention and heart.
