I have always loved working with children which is why I have chosen to pursue the career path of being a teacher. I recently became certified and graduated from Texas Tech. I am currently a special education middle school teacher. I previously worked for Keller ISD as an Adult Transition Aide for special needs students who have graduated but previously was a Pre-K aide in a bilingual classroom as well as an Inclusion Special Education aide at NISD. I also babysat previous to that with children ranging from 9 months to 10 years old. I believe my experience with all age groups as well as special needs as well as the want to pursue a career revolving around caring for children’s sets me apart!

Hi, I'm Jordan! I am 21 and currently an art student at the University of North Texas. I love being a sitter because of how much fun I have doing it. I get along great with kids of all ages and have a talent for making them laugh. Something that sets me apart is my willingness to get down on my hands and knees and really engage with children through pretend play, games, and immersive activities. I also have no problem helping clean up a little so parents can come home to a picked up house. I am CPR and First-Aid certified and have experience babysitting for elementary age children as well as toddlers. I have also gone through early education training this past year in preparation for a job as a teachers assistant at a pre-school summer enrichment program.

Being a sitter is not just a job for me; it's a vocation that brings me immense joy and purpose. First and foremost, what I adore most about being a sitter is the opportunity to be a part of a child's growth and development. There's an undeniable magic in witnessing those small, everyday moments when a child learns something new or experiences the world wonderfully. Whether it's helping with homework, reading bedtime stories, or simply playing games, these moments of growth fill me with a profound sense of fulfillment. One of the key aspects that sets me apart as a sitter is my commitment to fostering a safe and nurturing environment. I believe that trust is the cornerstone of any successful childcare relationship, and I take great pride in building that trust with both the children and their families. I prioritize open communication, ensuring parents are always in the loop about their children's well-being and any important developments in their daily lives. Children are unique individuals with their interests, needs, and quirks. I take the time to understand each child personally and adapt my approach to meet their specific requirements.

Hello :) My name is Danielle, I started babysitting at the age of 13 years old and loved it. We had neighbors that had five children starting from the age of 2 when I began babysitting them. I was also a lifeguard instructor so would teach kids of all ages how to swim! We fostered a baby girl as well so I have experience with sweet infants :) My nephew has autism so I’m very familiar with neurodivergent kiddos.

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 Denton, 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.

I am the mother of five and grandmother to a lot of really great kids. I have worked in behavioral health for 20 years and absolutely love children. All ages. During the years raising my family I had to depend on sitters and know the needs and concerns of parents who are trusting the care of their children to someone new to their family. I am very good with the newborns, toddlers and young children. I enjoy the teens and am very good at having a great with families with mixed ages. Arts and crafts are one of the activities I enjoy the most and using what nature provides to create a project. Sitting on the floor from playing cars, board games or puzzles. We can find all kinds of fun things to do. I also have personal and professional experience with children on the spectrum. I have a full background check and CPR/First Aid Certified. Looking forward to hearing from you!
