About Stephanie Enriquez

Stephanie Enriquez is a 34-year-old single woman from San Roque, Marikina. She is the only child in her family and was raised solely by her mother, who is now 55 years old and a full-time housewife. Stephanie has never met her father and has grown up understanding the importance of independence, hard work, and resilience. Determined to finish her education despite life’s challenges, Stephanie completed her secondary education in 2016 through the Department of Education’s Alternative Learning System (ALS). Motivated by her interest in cooking, she went on to study International Cooking at Marikina Polytechnic College, completing the course in 2017. Stephanie first gained local work experience as a store crew from November 2018 to January 2019. Saudi Arabia (July 2019 - February 2022), she worked as a domestic helper. She served an Arab family living in a 5-bedroom, 3-storey house with a couple and two children aged 11 and 5. The family occupied the first floor, while the second and third floors were rented out to tenants. Her responsibilities included managing the household: cleaning, doing laundry and ironing, cooking simple Arabic meals, car washing, and caring for the two children. She also maintained the cleanliness of the common areas on the rented floors. Twice a month, she visited her employer’s mother—a 70-year-old bedridden woman—to relieve the caregiver on her day off, gaining some experience in basic elder care. Stephanie is confident and experienced in caring for young children, particularly in tasks such as meal preparation, feeding, bathing, dressing, supervising, and engaging them in educational and recreational activities.
