$15 per hour for 1 child

I currently work at UT Hospital, where I’ve developed strong responsibility, patience, and communication skills—qualities that also help me when caring for children. Last year, I babysat for my aunt’s friend’s children over an extended period, which gave me valuable hands-on experience with kids of different ages. Through that time, I learned how to understand and adapt to children’s individual personalities, preferences, and needs. I’m familiar with what kids enjoy and what they may dislike, and I always strive to create a fun, comfortable, and safe environment for them. I love engaging with children through play, creative activities, and conversation, making sure they feel cared for and entertained. Whether it’s helping with homework, preparing snacks, or keeping them active, I’m committed to being attentive, reliable, and nurturing while ensuring both parents and kids feel confident and at ease with my care.
