Katalena G., Babysitter in Portland, TX 78374 with 3 years of paid experience

I am currently a full-time college student interested in being an elementary-level teacher! I have always loved being around kids, and being able to make even a small difference in their lives. Throughout the last few years, I have had hands-on daycare experience from helping at my hometown church, as well as babysitting occasionally for friends and family. I would love to be considered as a babysitter for your kiddos! :)

Kat was great! Our older Elementary aged kids were 100% comfortable with her and had a super fun time. We will definitely use Kat again in the future.

Juliana S., Babysitter in Portland, TX 78374 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi, I'm Jules! I'm 24 years old and a graduate of Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi with a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts and a teaching certificate. Working with children has always been a passion of mine. I began babysitting at 13 years old, caring for the children of my dad's Air Force coworkers. Since then, I've gained years of experience in childcare, education, and youth development. I worked at the YMCA in the daycare, after-school program, and as a referee for youth sports. I later joined CSC, where I taught kids' fitness classes, coached tennis, worked in the daycare, and served as a camp counselor. Through my work with K Space Contemporary, I've led hands-on art activities for children at local community events, worked with foster youth through outreach programs, and facilitated creative experiences for seniors at local senior centers. These experiences have taught me how to connect with people of all ages while creating a fun, welcoming, and supportive environment. I enjoy helping children learn, grow, and express themselves through art, sports, creativity, and play. I genuinely love working with kids and strive to make every child feel safe, encouraged, and valued

Brittaney G., Babysitter in Portland, TX 78374 with 10 years of paid experience

I am a dedicated childcare professional with over 10 years of experience working with children from infancy through adolescence. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice with honors from The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). From 1st through 8th grade, I participated in the Athena Program, which strengthened my academic foundation and allows me to confidently assist with homework and skill-building. I have experience supporting both neurotypical children and those with diverse needs, including ADD, ADHD, and autism (verbal and non-verbal). As a certified Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), I worked in an assent-based ABA clinic, collaborating with speech, occupational, and feeding therapists to help children develop essential life skills. I also have experience safely transporting children, maintain a reliable vehicle with full coverage insurance, and prioritize safety, structure, and nurturing care at all times.

I have worked closely with children with disabilities. I can adjust to how children are just as I meet them. Enjoy talking and playing what child wants even if its for only just a few minutes. I also like to help children learn so that they are prepared for school. I offer meals and snacks. I am CPR/AED/First-Aid Certified in infants, children and adults. I used to work as a special education teacher assistant and a nurses assistant.

Allyana R., Babysitter in Portland, TX 78374 with 1 year of paid experience

Hello! My name is Allyana, and I’m an 18-year-old pre-nursing student at Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi. I’m passionate about caring for others and hope to pursue a career as a pediatric nurse in the future. I’ve always enjoyed working with children, which is one of the reasons I’m so excited to continue gaining experience through babysitting. I’ve been caring for younger family members since I was around 10 years old, and over the years I’ve had experience with children of different ages and personalities. I’m a very responsible, patient, kind, and caring person, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each child and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. As a pre-nursing student, I’m also CPR and BLS certified, as well as a certified CMA and PCT. My healthcare background has taught me the importance of being attentive, responsible, and prepared, especially when caring for others. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident in the person they’re leaving their children with, and I always take that responsibility seriously. When babysitting, I love keeping kids engaged with activities that are fun and age-appropriate, whether that means playing games, doing crafts, reading, helping with homework, spending time outdoors, or simply being there to listen and keep them company. I’m happy to follow your family’s routines and make sure your child’s needs and your expectations are respected. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you can trust and rely on for your childcare needs. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!
