I have nannied for several families and worked in multiple daycares. I have a master’s degree in education with an emphasis in reading and gifted and talented. I am vaccinated for Covid, the flu, whooping cough, and RSV. I am CPR certified. I have First Aid training as well. When working in childcare, I prioritize children’s developmental growth and educational success. One of my main goals is to foster a safe environment while helping children reach developmental milestones. I love sparking curiosity and creativity in kids by exploring nature,music, and academia. Over the past few years I have created sensory and literary activities. I have always had a passion for working with children and I believe I can be a great addition to your child’s life if given the opportunity!

Shelly helped care for our baby girl for 7 weeks between returning to office and daycare beginning. She was with her between weeks 12-19 and she loved and cared for our girl every single day! She is a joy to have in the house and her love for children is apparent. She brought dozens of books every day and toys like finger puppets and sensory objects. She was monumental in her development, constantly reading books, singing and engaging with her on the floor to help with rolling and tummy time. She also helped us with bottle cleaning! We can't recommend Shelly enough and look forward to having her back to babysit in the future.

Wanda started caring for our daughter when she was 2 months old and has been with our family for the past 5 months, providing full-time care while we are at work. She is outstanding at her job, and her experience is clearly evident in everything she does. Wanda is consistently professional, reliable, and proactive. She communicates throughout the day with timely texts and pictures, and she also keeps a thorough daily log of feedings, diaper changes, and activities. Most importantly, Wanda truly cares about our child’s development and has been intentional about helping her work toward age-appropriate milestones. I would highly recommend Wanda to any family looking for an experienced, trustworthy, and caring nanny.

I graduated in May 2022 with a Bachelor’s Degree of Arts. I moved to Dallas, Texas February 2023, in which I'm currently looking for new experiences and opportunities. I've been working in childcare for 8 years in which I look forward to continuing that experience. Keeping your children, safe, engaged, and learning is my top priority. I’ve worked with all ages from infants to elementary students in settings such as licensed child care centers, babysitting/nannying, private events (parties, weddings, churches, etc.) and many more. I have been a nanny for 5 years, in which I worked with various families. Some of my duties included diaper changing, potty-training, encouraging developmental activities, housework, taking children to and from school/extra curricular, helping with homework, and much more. I have: completed background check, CPR/First Aid Certification, Child Development Associate, Resumes (nanny & work), Texas Director’s License, Driving Record, Bachelor's Degree, Daycare Owner Certification, and Author of Children's Book ("| Can Be Anyone from A to Z"). I can show all forms of documentation! I am open to discussing further via phone call , Zoom, Google Meet, and FaceTime. Thank you for reading this far and good luck with your nanny search! :)

Aaliyah was great with our 2 and 5 year old. She’s so sweet and kid-friendly. She’s dependable and communicates well, responding to texts and calls quickly. Her professionalism definitely put our minds at ease because we knew our kids were in capable hands. We will definitely be using Aaliyah again.

Alex is amazing! She connected with my 2 year-old daughter within the first 10 minutes of meeting her. My daughter is always excited when Alex comes to babysit, which makes our lives easier. From the moment she walks in, she takes my daughter and starts talking and playing with her. She is always able to manage putting her to sleep, which is not always an easy task. We are always reassured that we will have a smooth night if Alex is with her.

I love working with children. My passion is helping families transition to a new city, enjoy a vacation or bring home a new baby.I have personal experience with multiples and singletons. I am a licensed teacher for grades PK-5 (General Education) and K-12 (Special Education). My mission is to provide professional care for individuals who fall into multiple age groups. I have served as a daycare assistant in a nursery working with infants. I then moved on to work as an after-school assistant working with elementary students. After a few years, I worked as a tutor and personal care giver for a little boy for five years. I have had the honor of working with students at the high school level. After serving 4 more years in a special education setting with ages five to 13, I moved on create a safe space for students ages 5 through 9. My services range from tutoring, mother's helping, intervention, babysitting, etc. Let me help you and your family make your schedule work with ease.
