I wanted to take a moment to share why I enjoy babysitting for family’s so much. Caring for children is more than just a job to me; it’s a chance to be a positive role model and a small part of a child's journey as they grow. There is something truly special about the innocent, no-strings-attached love that kids offer. I love watching their imaginations run wild, whether we are building forts, making creative art projects, or just sharing a laugh over a silly joke. Their curiosity reminds me not to take life too seriously and helps me see the world through a much brighter, simpler lens. Beyond the fun, I take a lot of pride in the trust and responsibility you place in me. Keeping them safe, following their routines, and ensuring they feel supported and seen is incredibly rewarding.

I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel safe. I like creating fun memories with kids while also being someone parents can trust and depend on. Being a sitter also teaches responsibility, patience, and communication skills that will help me in the future.

Nurturing young minds is my passion, sparked by years of positive babysitting experiences and a deep desire to positively impact children's lives. With five years of experience caring for children aged 4-11, I offer a patient, calm, creative, and friendly approach. I am comfortable caring for up to three children. My skills include cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. I am trained in First Aid and CPR, with some college and Early Child Development coursework. I enjoy outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational activities. I follow the parents' lead in enforcing household rules and communicating about your child's day, respecting your preferred method. I'm eager to bring my enthusiasm and skills to your family, creating a fun and supportive environment where your children can thrive.

Kierra G., Babysitter in Port Arthur, TX 77642 with 10 years of paid experience

Kierra Greer. I am a dedicated childcare professional with over 11 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings. I am currently a Pre-K teacher in Port Neches, where I have had the privilege of helping young children grow academically, socially, and emotionally. As my final week approaches, I’m preparing to transition into more personalized childcare opportunities where I can provide families and children with focused care, support, and attention. Caring for children has always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve gained experience not only in the classroom, but also babysitting for families, working in church nurseries, providing childcare in gym settings, tutoring, and supporting children in different learning environments. These experiences have helped me understand the unique needs of children at different developmental stages and how to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging space for them. I am CPR and First Aid certified and hold multiple childcare and teaching certifications. I take safety, learning, and emotional support very seriously when caring for children. Childcare isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly feel called to do. I believe this purpose was placed on my life by God, and supporting children as they grow, learn, and develop has always been something I deeply love and enjoy. I will soon have full availability and I’m looking forward to continuing to serve families who are seeking dependable, experienced, and nurturing childcare.

I have live in East Houston for most of my life. My husband and I raised two daughters that both became teachers. I have a BA degree in psychology and worked in the accounting and administrative fields for years. Now I keep 2 little boys in their home 3 days a week. They are almost 4 and 9 months. I have watched them since the oldest was 10 months old. They have a dog that I also take care of daily. I am a volunteer chaplain at the hospital so I am up to date on shots. I have had TB test, pneumonia, flu and whooping cough vaccinations. I can provide references upon request. I have always enjoyed taking care of kids and they like me too. I am very responsible and will take very good care of your children and we will all have fun. Thank You, Kathy McMillan
