Emilia R.

I’m Emilia, a bilingual college student with a warm personality and a strong passion for working with kids. I’m originally from Argentina and now live in Allen, TX, where I study Interdisciplinary Art and Design at the University of North Texas. Spending time with children brings me so much joy. I love their imagination, curiosity, and the little everyday moments, like sharing a story, creating art together, or helping them learn something new. Babysitting allows me to form genuine bonds while giving parents peace of mind. I have over two years of hands-on babysitting experience with children in Argentina. I’ve helped with everything from playtime and bedtime to preparing meals and brushing teeth. I’ve also worked as a tutor, helping students build confidence in their studies, so I’m happy to support schoolwork or reading time, too! I’m responsible, patient, creative, and a great communicator. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, comfortable managing routines, and always focused on creating a safe and caring environment. I also have the CPR and First Aid Certification and committed to continuing to learn more about childcare and child safety.

Courtney worked out great. Our son was crying when we first left, but she handled the rough start well. And when we got back, he was sitting in her lap listening to her read. It looked like they had a good time together. (Side note: She noticed right away that we prefer no shoes to been worn in our home, and she picked up on our trash/recycling system. Our own parents still haven’t figured those two things out!) We will definitely call her again when the need arises.

Krystal provided me and my special needs adult daughter, a great experience. I reached you look for a last-minute sitter and am so glad I came across Krystal. I would recommend her a thousand times to anyone. She really cares for her clients, and it shows in her work. She made me and my daughter feel comfortable with the experience.

Hello, My name is Perla. Spanish is my first language, and I speak a little English. I have over 5 years of experience as a babysitter. My main focus is playing with children, reading with them, and supporting their learning. If you have specific educational materials, I’m happy to work with your child using them. I can also help your child learn Spanish as a second language. I am a reliable and responsible person who gives full attention to caring for your children. I enjoy working with young kids and am calm, patient, and caring. I teach through play—focusing on the alphabet, colors, and reading books. I have cared for newborns (as young as 10 days, 5 and 6 weeks), infants, toddlers, and children up to 6 years old . I also help several families with occasional date-night babysitting. Here’s a little more about me: I Have CPR and First Aid certified TDAP vaccinated Own transportation Comfortable with pets Non-smoker References available upon request If my limited English is not a problem for you, I would love to help care for your children.

We had a wonderful experience with Perla. She is incredibly responsible and experienced, especially with newborns, she took excellent care of our 2-month-old baby. From the very beginning, she made us feel at ease with her calm and nurturing presence. Communication with her was smooth and effortless, and she was always attentive to our baby’s needs. She’s not only knowledgeable about infant care but also genuinely loves working with babies, which shows in everything she does. We truly appreciated her reliability, professionalism, and the peace of mind she brought to our family. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring nanny.

Hello :) My name is Danielle, I started babysitting at the age of 13 years old and loved it. We had neighbors that had five children starting from the age of 2 when I began babysitting them. I was also a lifeguard instructor so would teach kids of all ages how to swim! We fostered a baby girl as well so I have experience with sweet infants :) My nephew has autism so I’m very familiar with neurodivergent kiddos.
