Kelly S.
Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny
- 6 years paid experience
- Babysitter in Fort Worth, TX 76107
Meet Kelly
- Comfortable with pets
I finished my BFA in Theatre Arts Performance not too long ago and spent a few years in New York City where sitting became my primary source of income. During that time I sat for over 75 families with kids as young as 9 weeks old and as old as 11. Because I'm an actor, I love to play imagination games with children and help them develop strong senses of creativity. I’ve also found that kids love library books, so I try to bring a few that fit their interests each time I sit. My experience is mostly with infants and toddlers, but during the time I spent substitute teaching I learned a lot about kids of all ages! I graduated with a 4.0 GPA in both high school and college and was a National Merit Commended Scholar and an AP Scholar, so I feel totally comfortable with homework help Read more or tutoring as well. I love to organize clutter, do laundry, and learn about nutrition. If you need the occasional housework done, I am more than willing to take that on on top of sitting.

Kelly was fantastic! Super responsive, responsible and caring - our nanny called an unexpected sick day and Kelly swooped in on short notice seamlessly. She sent us updates through the day and we came back to a very happy (rested) baby.

Kelly is absolutely fantastic - follows direction well, brings her own books to read to the kids. She took care of our 2 kids (4 and 1 yo) for an entire day while our regular sitter was sick. She's top notch!!

We booked her the day before when our normal babysitter got sick. She was very nice and attentive and she gave a good overview of how the sitting went when we returned. She watched our 3 year old and our 5 month old and dealt with feeding them and putting them to bed.
