Hello. I have been an LVN for many years now and also have pediatric experience, both in a doctor's office and while babysitting infants and children in the home. For a few years, I did gain more experience, while being on board, with a nanny agency. Engaging with the infants and children was a thrilling experience. Presently, I am not working full time in Nursing, due to the precariousness of Covid. I am, though available, for occasional week day nights and weekend times. Child care is a part of my career, as I have a very maternal instinct that exudes love. I can appreciate parents wanting an experienced, loving, and conscientious sitter, as that is what I remember my parents hiring, when I was little. By being a caregiver/babysitter, this allows parents to take some time off for themselves, to relax and have some fun, knowing that their child/children are in the kind, patient, loving, and responsible hands of a qualified person. I enjoy this kind of child care, because it gives me the chance to help children learn and also have fun with a credible sitter/playmate who takes joy in sharing her spare time with the younger generation. What makes me good at what I do? I feel that being kind, young-at-heart, loving, patient, reliable, dependable, a good listener, gentle, attentive, teachable, warm, trustworthy, and punctual, are all characteristics that would give families/parents peace of mind, when leaving their pride and joy, with a mature individual! As I remember, "Scamper the Dog", was my favorite children's book, while in first grade. I adored that book! Favorite games I played were, "Chutes N' Ladders", "Candy Land", and hopscotch on the sidewalk with my girlfriends. Favorite activities as a child were: riding bikes with neighbor's children, playing hide and go seek, dressing up our dolls, especially Barbie - that was really fun, watching American Bandstand on tv. Remember Frankie Valle? Oh...that voice!!! I am CPR, First Aid, choking maneuver, and A.E.D. certified. Am experienced in giving medications and medical emergencies! Parents, when placing your posting, please, please write your "zip code" somewhere in the posting. This is very important to me, as I don't like driving too far, especially at night. I look forward to meeting new families, through this website. Thank you and happy babysitting to all. :-) P.S. It would be so helpful, parents, if you shared what specific pets are in your home. :-).

My personality can be described as fun-loving, caring, and trustworthy. Working with children brings me joy and allows me to make a positive impact on their lives. My experience with childcare began at the age of 11 when a neighbor asked me to watch his three boys (ages 3, 4, & 6) whenever necessary. During my free time, I enjoy activities such as baking, watching movies, and spending time outdoors. Above all else, my primary concern is ensuring that your children are safe and well-cared for. Some of my key skills include patience, empathy, and creativity.

I have been working with children for the majority of my life, beginning with babysitting and moving through to becoming a school instructor. I started private nanny in 2019 and truly love it. I enjoy creating a bond with the families and children I work with. I love working with children and helping families because I like being someone that someone looks up and even depend on when they can’t depend on anyone else.When children love, they love so wholly and without judgement, and it can warm even the coldest of hearts. When a child bestows on you their cherished work of art, wrapping embrace, or loving words, your world gets a whole lot brighter. This is what I love to do and why. I am also cpr and first aid certified , I have references and experience with all ages but mostly ages infants to 10 years old. I have worked as a nanny, babysitter, and teacher so I have experience in all settings as well. I hope I’m a good fit for you and your family!

I am a Graduate student in the Houston area with over 6 years of experience. My love for kids began as an only child who lived in a home where my mother ran a childcare center. Upon moving to the New Orleans area for my undergraduate degree, I began sitting young children on the weekends to help pay for school. I continued to aid families with childcare needs when I moved to Texas for my graduate degree and have made many lovely connections over the years. My preference happens to be newborns to toddlers but I have worked with all ages including high schoolers. ages 8mos-4years. Through sitter city, I am hoping to find many more great families to work with and expand my experience with childcare.
