Amanda S., Babysitter in The Colony, TX 75056 with 24 years of paid experience

I offer child care for children ages 0-15. I am 40 years old, a mother of two teen/adult children, and a non-smoker. I have 24+ years experience in childcare. I was previously employed with Children's World Childcare Center in Plano Texas, volunteered at Medical Center of Plano (now Medical City) in the newborn nursery. I am certified in first aid and CPR through American Red Cross. I have a clean background, clean driving record and wonderful references. I speak English, Spanish and know some ASL because I have a deaf sibling. I own my vehicle, which seats 6 children (or 4 car seats) and is fully insured. I love pets and have no allergies. I’m a decent cook, and I promise I will treat your children as my own. Please reach out if you think I may be a good match for your family.

Megan F., Babysitter in The Colony, TX 75056 with 12 years of paid experience

Hello! I'm a 29 year-old college graduate living in Plano. My mom was 1 of 20 children, so I have tons of little cousins, about 40 under the age of 13 so I've been around children all my life. I have 12 years of paid babysitting experience. I've after-school nannied for two families, with 5 and 8-year-old girls. In my free time I like to pick up occasional babysitting gigs. I have a ton of experience with all ages of children, including: infants, toddlers, twins, multiples and special needs. I've watched up to 6 kids at a time. I strive to be great role-model for all the children I babysit for. I really enjoy getting to know each child and I do my best to develop a good relationship with them because they are all so different. I always look forward to working with new families. Please feel free to message me if you think I would be a good fit for you and your family!

Megan has been our go-to babysitter for our 2 kids for the past 2 years and has been everything we've needed and more! She's reliable, punctual, and responsive and our kids love her. She has a great deal of comfort and confidence around them, which goes a long way in them looking forward to spending time with her.

Xiomara A., Babysitter in The Colony, TX 75056 with 5 years of paid experience

Hi parents and legal guardians, my name is Xiomara! I have a soft spot for caring for children, I have a little brother myself and I’m an aunt to 6 lovely kiddos. I began my full time childcare journey in 2020 during the pandemic. Since then, I have worked alongside multiple families doing everything from creating educational/fun activities, homework assistance, preparing snacks/meals, school drop-off/pick-up/ extracurricular activities, sick care, potty training and more. In addition, I have provided short-term care on numerous occasions from weekends to up to two weeks. Furthermore, I have worked as a registered behavior therapist focusing on kids on the autism spectrum. Ultimately, I strive to be a positive influence for the youth, while providing a nurturing and safe space for everyone involved. Any further questions please feel free to ask, thank you.

Crystal D., Babysitter in The Colony, TX 75056 with 3 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm Crystal. I provide childcare while I'm back in college for another degree, so my availability changes based on the current semester. I've worked with children from 3 months to 11 years, but I can work with older. I can provide all child and home care necessities, such as cooking and feeding, diaper changing and bathing, dishes and laundry, etc. I will try to keep kids off screens but understand the importance they have developed for knowledge and entertainment. I don't smoke, and I have a reliable vehicle. I am comfortably with pets, CPR and First Aid certified for cats and dogs from the Red Cross, and certified from the American Heart Association for humans, due 2028. Please let me know if I can help you with your childcare needs. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Crystal is professional, dependable, and the kids really enjoyed her night with them. She is so patient and compassionate even with our youngest who can be very much a toddler. Crystal followed all of our instructions, and even went above and beyond. We loved having her and will definitely book again soon!

Arie'l V., Babysitter in The Colony, TX 75056 with 3 years of paid experience

Hello! I’m a reliable, caring, and CPR & First Aid certified babysitter with 3 years of childcare experience. As the oldest sibling in a large family, I’ve spent years caring for children of all ages, which has helped me become patient, responsible, and adaptable. I’m currently a college student and enjoy creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. Whether we’re playing games, reading stories, doing crafts, helping with homework, or getting ready for bedtime, I strive to make every babysitting experience enjoyable while following your family’s routines. As the former Battalion Commander of my high school’s JROTC program, I developed strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills that help me stay calm, organized, and dependable in any situation. I’m happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping related to the children, bedtime routines, and keeping parents updated throughout the visit. My goal is to give you peace of mind while ensuring your children are safe, happy, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting your family!

Ariel is one of the kindest people i’ve met. I have 2 younger children who’s very energetic and talkative.I know lots of people don’t have the patience , but after having Ariel and seeing how she handles my children by keeping them entertained and staying well engaged has completely transformed for my life.After coming home from long hours I would be very tired, after having Ariel i’ve been able to juggle with the stress from long hours and not having to be worry for my children or the lack of engagement I use to give them.I loved having Ariel and i’ll gladly have her over any time again!
