Courtney worked out great. Our son was crying when we first left, but she handled the rough start well. And when we got back, he was sitting in her lap listening to her read. It looked like they had a good time together. (Side note: She noticed right away that we prefer no shoes to been worn in our home, and she picked up on our trash/recycling system. Our own parents still haven’t figured those two things out!) We will definitely call her again when the need arises.

Hi! I’m Rachael! I’ve been babysitting for over 5 years and have cared for children of all ages. I attended Oklahoma Baptist University for two years and was a student athletic trainer, which gave me experience caring for others and handling a variety of situations. I also spent 5+ years serving with VBS at Hope Fellowship. I later attended esthetician school for a year and am continuing my education in medical aesthetics. I truly enjoy being around kids and love creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment for them. I’d love the opportunity to care for your children and become someone your family feels comfortable and confident having around!

I’m Emilia, a bilingual college student with a warm personality and a strong passion for working with kids. I’m originally from Argentina and now live in Allen, TX, where I study Interdisciplinary Art and Design at the University of North Texas. Spending time with children brings me so much joy. I love their imagination, curiosity, and the little everyday moments, like sharing a story, creating art together, or helping them learn something new. Babysitting allows me to form genuine bonds while giving parents peace of mind. I have over two years of hands-on babysitting experience with children in Argentina. I’ve helped with everything from playtime and bedtime to preparing meals and brushing teeth. I’ve also worked as a tutor, helping students build confidence in their studies, so I’m happy to support schoolwork or reading time, too! I’m responsible, patient, creative, and a great communicator. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, comfortable managing routines, and always focused on creating a safe and caring environment. I also have the CPR and First Aid Certification and committed to continuing to learn more about childcare and child safety.

Sunny has been a great help with my 3-month-old baby! She’s gentle, patient, and very caring with my little one. She also helps around the house so I can take some time to rest, which I really appreciate. I feel comfortable and at ease when she’s here. Highly recommend her!
Tierra .

Hey there! My name is Tierra, and I'm looking to earn extra cash so I can continue to take care of my mother. I am new to babysitting for other people, as I am accustomed to babysitting for family and close friends. However, I would love to gain more experience caring for multiple children. I find bonding with children rather easier than with most adults, that may just be the introvert in me. My schedule during the week is constantly changing due to Physical Therapy for my mother, but it can be considerably flexible. I am looking to take care of any age of children either for one time or occasionally. I learned CPR in high school, and I have just received a real certification for it. I am able to do any light cleaning, laundry, prepare any snacks, or easy meals. I am also open to learning new things. I hope you consider me for the job. I would also like to mention that I have no experience with children of any disability, but I am willing to learn and love. I am also fine with any pets, unless it's like a tiger ! ;) . Thank You!

Tierra Tierra has been amazing with all three of my boys! She is caring, patient, and attentive to each of their individual needs. My boys absolutely love her and are always happy to see her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy babysitter. She truly cares for the children she watches, and it gives me peace of mind knowing my boys are in such great hands.

Kids make life infinitely more fun and unpredictable in the best ways! The most important thing for me is being the kind of person kids feel safe and happy to be around. Building that foundation of trust and having fun always makes it feel like more than just a job to me! I have over 8 years of experience working with children ages 4–18. I started babysitting and nannying for families when I was 17 (with references available) and have continued working with kids in different settings ever since! I’ve also worked as a behavioral therapist for two years, supporting children on the spectrum, and as a healthcare provider in a rehab facility working with pre-teens. These experiences have allowed me to shape a patient, adaptable, and personable care giving style that cater with each child’s individual needs. I bring strong communication skills, emotional awareness, and dependability. I’m comfortable handling a wide range of situations, from high-energy playtime to more structured routines, and I always aim to create a safe, positive environment where kids feel supported and understood above all!

Febe was referred to us by a close friend and she has been a great addition to our sitter list. She engages with my 4 kids in non electronic activities and games. They are excited to see her and they listen to her! She gets them to bed timely and keeps gets the house back in order by the time I return. She is very sweet mannered and mature. As a single mom I am thankful for her and trust her.

Hi! I’m Vivian, I’m 24 years old, and I absolutely love working with kids! I have 3 years of experience as a preschool teacher, where I spent my days helping little ones learn, grow, and have fun. Being around children brings me so much joy, and I love creating a positive, safe, and engaging environment where they can be themselves. I’m currently in college working toward my goal of becoming a kindergarten teacher, so caring for and educating children is truly my passion. I enjoy everything from arts and crafts and imaginative play to story time and helping with early learning skills. I believe every child is unique, and I love getting to know their personalities and interests. Parents describe me as dependable, patient, and caring. You can count on me to keep your children safe while making sure they have a fun and enjoyable time. Whether we’re playing games, reading books, helping with homework, or sticking to a bedtime routine, I’ll make sure your little ones are well cared for and smiling. I would love the chance to get to know your family and be someone you can trust with your children! 😊💖

Hey, hey! I’m Madison Lexing, and I’m from Melissa, TX. I’m currently in school studying sonography, and caring for little ones has always been a huge part of my life. I truly adore babies and young children! I spent three years volunteering at my church every Sunday and Wednesday morning, caring for and teaching children ages 8 months - 6 years old. I’ve also been a trusted neighborhood babysitter for several years, and I love building sweet, safe, and fun connections with the families I work with. I have a 14-year-old brother on the autism spectrum, which has helped shape me into a very patient, gentle, and attentive caregiver. I’m comfortable with infants and toddlers, enjoy playtime and routines, and I’m always happy to help with cooking, light cleaning, and meal prep. My goal is to make your day smoother and your kids feel loved and cared for!
