I have an experience of 4 years of babysitting! It all started when I was in highschool and I loved every second of it! I had babysat for 3 kids between the ages of 5 and 13. It made me realize how much I love the career and why I study Early Childhood Education to become a kindergarten teacher in the future! I also became CPR certified which is valid for 2 years! Overall babysitting has taught me the joys of little children’s lives and help me want to pursue my career even more!

Hi! I’m Victoria, I’m 18 years old and currently junior at UTRGV who’s currently pursuing a bachelors degree in criminal justice. I graduated from Edinburg North High School back in June 2023 and currently work part time in the fast food industry at whataburger. What I lack in experience with kids I make up for in responsibility, hard-work, maturity, and reliability. I’m great for tutoring, cooking, housekeeping, caretaking, and so much more. I’m also CERT certified, I can deal with emergency situations and am trained for basic first aid, CRP, fire prevention/safety, disaster management, etc. Please feel more then free to reach out to me!

As a dedicated and compassionate college student and mother of a 1-year old, I've always been passionate about caring for children. Growing up as the oldest of five siblings, I naturally took on a caregiving role, developing strong organizational skills and a loving approach. During the babysitting I will need to have my baby tag along since she is breastfed and sadly doesn't like bottle feeding but I assure that I won't prioritize her over your children. Experience • Internship: Kindergarten Assistant (school program) • Sisterly care: Primary caregiver for four younger siblings Skills • Childcare and education • Organization and household management • Meal preparation • Cleaning and maintenance Availability Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday 7:30 AM - 5:30 PM Unavailability Sunday (church commitments) Why I'm a great fit As a responsible and caring individual, I'm excited to bring my skills and experience to a childcare role. I'm confident in my ability to provide a nurturing environment, support learning, and assist with daily tasks. Let's work together to create a happy and healthy environment for the children!

I am a soon-to-be medical school graduate pursuing a career in pediatric cardiology, and I have extensive experience working with children in both medical and educational settings. During my pediatric rotation, I gained hands-on experience caring for infants, toddlers, and adolescents in a clinical environment, learning how to communicate effectively and compassionately with both children and their families. I also worked as a tutor for high school students, where I developed skills in engaging and motivating kids with different personalities and learning styles. Outside of academic and medical settings, I’ve had meaningful childcare experience with my own family. Over the past year, I’ve regularly babysat my sister’s newborn, handling everything from feedings and diaper changes to naps and playtime. I also occasionally care for my cousins’ children, who are 3 and 7 years old. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of the different needs of children at various developmental stages and how to support them with patience, structure, and fun. I am responsible, reliable, and great at keeping kids engaged while making sure they are safe and well cared for. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative activities, or sticking to a family’s routine, I take pride in respecting parents’ expectations and household rules. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable around pets.

Got it! I’ll adjust your answers with that nurturing. Why do you love being a sitter? I love being a sitter because caring for children is something that truly brings me joy. I love nurturing kids and helping them grow into emotionally intelligent, independent, and functional individuals. Creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where they can learn and thrive is deeply rewarding, and I value the trust families place in me to be part of their child’s everyday life. What experience do you have? I have over 5 years of experience working with children ages 1–11 as a teacher at my church, where I planned activities, supervised groups, and supported their learning in a positive, engaging way. I also served with AmeriCorps and worked at the Boys & Girls Club, where I supported kids through after-school programs, mentoring, and structured play. These roles gave me experience working with children from diverse backgrounds and supporting their social, emotional, and educational development. What skills and training do you have?** Through my years of childcare and youth program experience, I’ve developed strong skills in communication, patience, activity planning, and conflict resolution. I’m experienced in balancing fun with structure, helping with homework, and encouraging positive social skills. In addition, I am PR and First Aid certified, and I’ve received training through AmeriCorps and the Boys & Girls Club that emphasized safety, leadership, and child development. Families can feel confident knowing I bring both hands-on experience and professional training to the children I care for.
