Addy Dallas
$20 per hour for 1 child

My name is Addy, and I’m a responsible, caring, and energetic babysitter with years of experience working with children of all ages. I recently graduated from Wayland Baptist University, where I also played college softball. I’m currently attending Texas Woman’s University to earn my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree while living in Dallas. I’m also a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), and I have a strong passion for helping others, especially kids. I’ve worked with families in various roles, from reading and playing games to helping with bedtime routines and schoolwork. I enjoy creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids can learn, laugh, and feel comfortable. I’m trained in basic first aid and CPR, and I’m very attentive to safety and detail. When I’m not babysitting, I love working out, spending time outdoors, finding cute coffee shops, and spending time with friends. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, fun, and dependable environment for your little ones!
