Hi! My name is Abreuna, but I prefer Bre! I am 22 years old and I have been working with children since I was 18. I worked as a summer camp counselor for children aged 3-5 from 2[removed]. From 2021-2023 I have worked with children from the age range of 1 - 10 years of age. I have worked as a behavioral therapist for children with autism from the age range of 3-11 from all ends of the spectrum. I truly love children, they are my passion. I am currently only in school and miss working with little bundles of joy! I have a fun, warm, and bubbly personality, while also maintaining professionalism. I strive to create positive impacts on the lives of children and their parents! Thank you! I look forward to continuing creating positive impacts and spreading kindess and positivity 😊

Booked by 19 families in Garland, TX

Hello, I’m Aleehya — a compassionate and experienced childcare provider with over seven years of dedicated service supporting children from infancy through late adolescence. My background includes working as a Registered Behavioral Technician in ABA therapy, where I support children with autism and other developmental needs through structured, evidence-based behavioral interventions designed to help them thrive. I bring a nurturing, patient, and encouraging presence to every setting, whether I’m caring for infants with gentle routines, helping school-aged children with emotional and social development, or supporting teens with life skills and confidence-building activities. I’ve also served as an assistant teacher at my church for over two years, where I help lead lessons and provide a safe, positive learning environment for children of all ages. In addition to childcare, I also offer reliable pet care services for families — from daily support and overnight care to working with dogs and cats who have medical or behavioral needs. I am comfortable administering medications, managing dietary restrictions, and tending to pets with specific routines or health conditions. Whether supporting a child with sensory sensitivities or comforting a pet recovering from surgery, I approach each situation with empathy, attentiveness, and professionalism. My goal is always to provide peace of mind for families by creating a caring, structured, and uplifting space where both children and pets feel secure, valued, and understood.

Aleehya was amazing with our 4 your old son! She was on time, professional and super caring and patient with him. He had an absolute blast with her all day. Her RTB background was great since our son is on the spectrum. We will definitely hire her again.
