Meet James

I have been a nanny and babysitter for 10+ years now. I can also give awesome references from the families I babysit and nanny for. I used to nanny and 2 of my families just ended up moving out of state this last month. It's opened my availability to helping others though and if I make a good fit then great! I have full time experience with play dates, outings, overnights, carpool, sick, and date nights as well as vacations with families to help out. I have experience working with babies just days old (they call me the baby whisperer, haha) to 12 years old. I also have teaching experience with 3-15 year olds, I was a technical teacher for kids at iCode as well as a pre-school teacher at Anshai Torah. I currently work now as a Software Engineer for USAA and I continue babysitting for my main families Read more and others in my spare time, weekdays, overnites, and weekends. I still enjoy babysitting and now it is more a hobby than a main source of income. Also, I want to get all the experience I can for I plan on adopting in the near future. I work a typical 9-5 job that allows the flexibility to do pick up and drop off with schools and just being able to wfh with the kids there. Since I wfh I'm opening up my home and time to help anyone looking for someone to watch their kid during the day while they are at work. Can do evenings or night as well depending on your shifts / needs. I did this with my kids I've watched for years but since they have moved I'm available for other families! I have a safe and brand new vehicle and a clean driving record if driving is something that is required. I am also up to date with my lifeguarding, cpr / First Responders license. I am very patient with kids and absolutely love the job of taking take of them. I can also do way more than just sitting at home. My main families have me take them on outings such as six flags, rock climbing, baseball games, swimming, and other play places. I am very active and would prefer to work with an active family! 713-382-4114
