I am a very attentive, energetic, engaging, patient, and loving childcare provider who likes to have tons of fun and teach. I don't use any type of electronics as a tool for babysitting. I am a very active person who likes to jump on a trampoline, walk to the park, play sports, art, face paint, read, play dress up etc. I'm pretty much game on for anything. I have references for the last 8 years in the DFW area working with ages from newborn to age 13 years old. I am a mother of 2 adult children and a 17 yr old, whom I am homeschooling. I am very health conscious, vaccine informed and stay very active playing soccer and working out. If you're needed just an extra pair of hands on the weekends or evenings, and or just a date night please reach out. I do have excellent references in DFW with current families. Sincerely, Lorrinda Hartin

We had an amazing experience with Rebekah! She watched our 9-year-old and was incredibly engaged from the moment she arrived. They played together the entire time, which we appreciated so much. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a fun, responsible, and energetic sitter!

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.

Ms. Wanda has been our full time nanny for the past few months since I returned to work, and she always goes beyond to care for my son and make our day to day easier as a family! She is especially awesome at reading my son’s cues, noting what he’s into, and bringing lots of energy to cheer him up and with my older daughter as well. We have been able to count on Ms. Wanda everyday, she is always timely and very communicative. My son absolutely loves Ms. Wanda and we are always so appreciative and grateful that we get to work with her. Thank you so much Ms. Wanda!

Mary was the most caring and conscientious nanny we could ever have hoped to find. She treated our daughter as if she were her own. She took care of all aspects of her care and provided her with love and affection. It was an added plus but she also taught her beginning Spanish. We are only parting ways because we are relocating due to a job transfer. We highly recommend her.

My approach is patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules and enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games. I provide regular updates through text, phone calls, and verbal communication at pickup, always following your preferred method. I'm happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, crafts, and swimming supervision.

I have some college, actually 4 years in nursing school education and a reliable car. I look forward to bringing my experience and love for childcare to your family. I do have and can send via email an enhanced background check,(the one run on here is the basic version, and all it really means is im not a criminal), my DMV record and insurance, and CPR certificate if needed. I also have special needs experience, particularly with Autism and Asberger's, there is a review on another care site that I can provide you pertaining to that and my ex-stepson who i helped raise for nearly 10 years is Autistic.

Hi! My name is Miracle, and I have over seven years of experience caring for children from newborns to preteens. I’ve worked as a live-in nanny, babysitter, and with kids and teens at my church. From March to October 2024, I cared for two siblings (ages 1 and 3) as a live-in nanny, managing meals, activities, bedtime, and household tasks. I’ve also babysat a 5-year-old regularly, handling dinner, entertainment, and bedtime. I love helping kids explore and learn by making everyday tasks fun and engaging. My approach adapts to each child’s personality—whether they want to be silly and playful or enjoy quiet time, their comfort always comes first. I’m available Tues/Thurs/Sat anytime and M/W/F after 2 PM. I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and pet care. If you’re looking for a responsible, experienced, and flexible babysitter, I’d love to connect!
