Kriste G., Child Care in Galveston, TX 77550 with 30 years of paid experience

I am married and have one adult child . Beautiful Galveston Island is my home. I am a retired Elementary School teacher. Teaching all levels of elementary age children from the average to the gifted and talented was very rewarding to me. I have tutored children through the years, and I home schooled my child. Needless to say, working with children and caring for babies are favorites of mine. Some of my other hobbies include arts and crafts, baking, shopping, running errands and traveling. I am extremely clean, organized, outgoing, friendly, happy, perceptive, caring, and an understanding Mom with a lot of energy.

Kriste helped babysit for us when we rented a beach house with another family this summer. After speaking on the phone for 30 mins, we booked her for all four children on a Friday night. She did so great and the kids were so happy that we ended up asking her to come back Saturday night too! We can't recommend Kriste enough. I feel so lucky to have a sitter that I can trust and who the kids enjoy in one of our favorite local destinations- finding Kriste is a game changer! After spending the day with the kids at the beach, the adult only evenings ensure that we, as parents, relax and recharge on the trip too. Thank you so much Kriste!

Laureen was great! She arrived on time for an early job (6 AM). She was competent and caring, a pleasure to be around. She was patient and kept my 4 month old grandson entertained, fed, and comforted. I would definitely hire her again.

Yohannerys F., Child Care in Galveston, TX 77550 with 6 years of paid experience

I am a dedicated, fully bilingual (English/Spanish) caregiver with over 5 years of experience in educational and administrative support. Coming from a family of educators, with a 2 sisters, and a lot of cousins, I grew up assisting in classroom management and developing learning and creative materials. That gave me the opportunity of deep understanding of child development and patient, structured guidance. Being fluent in both English and Spanish allows me to provide a multicultural environment and support children in language development. My background as an Operation manager means I bring a high level of organization safety consciousness, and reliability to every family I work with. I love being a sitter because it allows me to combine my nurturing nature with my passion for helping children grow in a creative and organized environment. I am skilled in coordinating daily schedules, assisting with homework, and managing household logistics with ease. I am a proactive problem-solver who values clear communication with parents to ensure their children are safe, happy, and thriving.

Yoha is a great person. She helped us playing with our kids who are 5 and 3yo and they loved spending time with her! They asked for her to come back the next day. She was very patient and engaged with them the whole time. I highly recommend Yoha!
