Meet college nannies and sitters from Sam Houston State University

I’m patient, dependable, and naturally caring—qualities that help me build trust and create a safe, comfortable environment for others. When babysitting my little cousins, I’ve learned how to handle different personalities, keep kids engaged, and manage responsibilities like meals, homework, and bedtime routines. I’m also comfortable assisting with light cleaning, organizing, and ensuring that everything runs smoothly at home. My strong communication skills and positive attitude make me easy to work with and help me connect with both children and adults. Whether I’m caring for a child, or a pet, I always bring empathy, responsibility, and attention to detail to ensure everyone’s needs are met and they feel supported.

My name is Sasha, and I am a senior at Sam Houston State University, where I am preparing to apply to the Doctoral Physical Therapy Program. I have a strong background in caregiving that spans children, older adults, and animals, which has helped me develop patience, responsibility, and compassion. I grew up caring for pets, including two dogs and three horses, giving me hands-on experience with daily feeding, exercise, and overall animal care. Additionally, my nana lived with Alzheimer’s disease for most of my life, and I played an active role in her care by assisting with feeding, administering medication, helping with hygiene needs, and managing bed sore care. My experience with children includes working at the Boys and Girls Club of Walker County from 2021 to 2025, where I worked closely with kids of all ages, primarily grade-school children. These experiences, combined with my passion for helping others and my future goals in healthcare, make me a reliable, attentive, and nurturing caregiver.

Hello! My name is Tedric, I am 18 years old and I am currently pursuing a degree in Business Administration at Sam Houston State University. Nurturing young minds and supporting families is my best interest. My approach is patient and friendly, and I always follow the parents' lead when enforcing household rules. I provide regular updates, communicating in whatever way you prefer. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games with children. I have some college education and I am comfortable caring for kids as well as pets, and can help with cooking and light housekeeping. I'm excited to bring my energy and dedication to your family and create a safe and stimulating environment for your child to thrive. Taking care of kids makes me feel as I'm taking care of a sibling. Thanks for considering, and I hope that you can give me the opportunity to prove myself!

I have experience caring for children in both family and community settings. My responsibilities included supervising daily activities, helping with homework, preparing meals and snacks, keeping children engaged with fun and educational activities, and maintaining a safe and positive environment. I have worked with children of different ages and learned how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s needs. Through these experiences, I developed strong communication, problem-solving, and time-management skills while building trust with both children and parents.

Hi! I’m Kari, a creative, dependable, and compassionate caregiver with 10+ years of childcare experience, 15 years of household experience, and 4 years of professional pet-sitting experience. I genuinely enjoy caring for people, children, pets, and homes, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for every family I work with. I’ve been babysitting since I was about 12, starting with my younger cousins and nephews, including babies just a few months old. Since then, I’ve cared for children ranging from newborns through young teens (up to age 16). I also worked for two years at 24 Hour Fitness Plus in their childcare program, giving me professional experience caring for multiple children and keeping them safe, engaged, and entertained. I love creative activities, imaginative play, music, storytelling, arts and crafts, and helping with homework. My background in theatre also makes me especially comfortable creating fun, engaging activities for kids of different ages and personalities. I’m currently completing my pediatric and adult CPR training and certification. I also offer household services and have about 15 years of experience cleaning and caring for homes. I work quickly but thoroughly and pay close attention to detail. I’ve been recommended by previous clients because I take pride in doing a great job. Most importantly, there is absolutely no judgment here! Whether you need routine cleaning, tidying, organizing, or help getting your home back under control, I’m happy to help. I’ve been pet sitting for about four years and have experience caring for senior pets, disabled pets, and pets who need medications. I’m comfortable with feeding, administering medication, providing companionship, and following individual care instructions. I’ve also grown up with pets and had my own cat for 11 years, so I understand how much our animals mean to us. I’m also interested in senior care. I helped my grandmother care for my great-grandmother until she passed, and I’m comfortable providing companionship, assistance with meals and feedings, entertainment, and day-to-day support. I’m especially happy to keep someone company through conversation, music, singing, games, or simply being a friendly presence. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, creative, and genuinely care about the people and animals I work with. My goal is for families to feel comfortable knowing their loved ones and their homes are in capable, caring hands.
