Booked by 7 families in La Vernia, TX

I'm a funny bubbly person, who loves kids. Ever since I was a little kid probably about five or six, my friends grandma said that I would end up working with kids, because at all the gatherings we went to I would always end up taking care of the younger kids. I have about ten years of experience babysitting kids that aren't my younger siblings or cousins. I have babysat kids of all different types of personalities and ages.

Lesleigh arrived early and was very attentive.

Booked by 3 families in La Vernia, TX

Hi, my name is Colin Finerghty! I am 20 years old and I’m currently a rising junior at St. Edward’s University where I’m studying Digital Media Management. As the older brother of one younger sister, I have always been surrounded by kids, and I bring over three years of babysitting and nannying experience to families I work with. I have cared for both boys and girls ranging from ages 2 to 14, and I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment. I am a social, bubbly, and energetic person who enjoys connecting with kids to make every experience both memorable and enjoyable, whether it is for a one-time job or building long-term relationships with families. In addition to childcare, I bring over seven years of pet sitting experience. I have cared for a wide range of animals including cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, and more through both personal ownership and professional pet sitting. I enjoy giving animals the same attention, care, and affection I provide to children, and I always make sure they are comfortable, well-fed, and happy while in my care. I also believe in collaboration with parents to make sure I meet each child’s specific needs and routines. I am great at cooking, so I can prepare meals and snacks that kids will enjoy while still keeping them healthy. Safety is always my top priority, and I am CPR certified. Looking forward to meeting your family and pets!
