Alliyah C.
- 2 years paid experience

Hi! My name is Alliyah, and I’m currently a junior studying social work at the University of North Texas. I grew up in a big family, so I’ve always been surrounded by kids and naturally took on the role of helping care for younger siblings and relatives. That early experience sparked my passion for caregiving, which I plan to carry into my future career. I’m responsible, patient, and great at keeping kids engaged with creative play, reading, and age-appropriate activities. I’ve worked with children of all ages and feel confident caring for up to four kids at a time. I also offer house sitting services for pets. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns!

Flexible Hours—Including overnight and last minute bookings! Hi! I am a fourth year college student in pursuit of Teacher Certification. I am passionate about cultivating a safe environment for your children to play and learn, and ensuring you feel comfortable and like your children have been beyond adequately cared for! I also don’t mind traveling for work. Strong ability to de-escalate situations and help navigate tough emotions your child may be experiencing. Neurodivergence-informed. CPR and first aid trained. Able to pick up, drive, run errands, attend family outings, prepare meals/snacks, help with homework (language arts, sciences, math, history, etc), and assist with laundry/housework! I love to play games, have dance parties, make crafts, and more with your kiddos!

Very communicative during the whole process. Our little one really enjoyed her time with Briohny and is anxious for her to come back.

I started teaching a pre-K class when I was 14 years old. I moved to Utah in 1997 after graduating high school and started teaching kindergarten at a private school while going to college. I taught kindergarten until I moved to Charleston, South Carolina in 2010. While living there for three years I became an ABA therapist for kids with Autism working on behavior, social skills, academics, speech, PT, OT, etc. I moved back to Texas in 2013 and home schooled a child with Autism for three years. She started public school once she was of age and since then I have helped with foster kids and drop in kiddos from my house. I have been a nanny and baby sitter in the summers and throughout the school years for the past 20+ years. I have also taught swim lessons and been a tutor for kids outside of school hours (reading, writing, spelling, and math). I have remained CPR and First Aid certified and take classes often to help keep me up to date on other subjects like shaken baby, sids, etc. I am comfortable with newborns through teenagers. I did 3 1/2 years of college and have my CDA certification from 2000. I am comfortable with some pets including dogs, birds, fish, rabbits. I am NOT comfortable with cats or hamsters/mice. I am highly allergic to both.

Sharon is awesome! I trust her completely with my 6 month old son. She is very knowledgable, and is willing to work around my quirky first time parent questions and routines.

I love to be active and maintain a healthy lifestyle. I value & enjoy mentorship with youth and was able to mentor through my previous church in TN for 6 years before relocating to TX. I now do some mentorship professionally within my role as a case management site coordinator in the public school system. Connecting with children, seeing them mature and knowing that I had a small yet significant impact in their lives is so rewarding. I have worked in a professional setting with school aged children for over 6 years and I have completed over 80+ hours of formal training throughout my professional career in addition to my degree program in Sociology and Family Studies. I am also a strong swimmer and love to be in the water. My minimum rate for multiple children is $25/hr given my extensive experience and mature age. I was previously CPR/First Aid certified for infants to adults but my certication has lapsed due to my inactive status in caring for children. I will be on my summer break after the first weekend in June until late July. I also have my 2.5 year old daughter who I would love to bring with me for a potential playmate if the circumstances are right and if all parties are comfortable. However, this isn't necessarily a requirement for me and, depending on the days that I'm needed, I can secure alternative care.

We cannot recommend Alex highly enough. She has been an absolute lifesaver and a cherished part of our family. Her daily routine with our two children was seamless, managing the morning school drop-offs and returning in the afternoon for pickups without a hitch. Throughout the day, she took excellent care of our home, handled light meal prep for kids , laundry and lovingly cared for our dogs and birds. What truly sets Alex apart is her deep heart and dedication. She bonded beautifully with both of our kids, engaging them with genuine care and energy. During a period where I had to work incredibly long hours, knowing she was there gave me complete peace of mind. She didn't just manage the logistics; she supported our whole family when we needed it most. Anyone would be incredibly lucky to have her.
