$24 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Cassey. I’ve been supporting little ones along their developmental journey for almost seven years through two full-time nanny positions, along with experience as a lead 2’s teacher. I’m currently with one of my nanny families going on our fourth year together, and while I remain committed to them, I’m looking to pick up some additional part-time hours while their kiddo is in school. They are fully supportive and flexible with my schedule, and they would be more than happy to be contacted as a reference. I'm hoping to find some day time hours between 9:30am and 5pm one or multiple days a week. I’m also enrolled in online classes pursuing a degree in Social Work. My dream is to work with children in the foster care system—helping them find loving, safe homes and being a warm, steady, positive presence in their lives.

I'm a childcare provider with a deep-rooted passion for nurturing children's growth and development. With over 12 years of experience, I've had the privilege of caring for children of all ages, fostering their emotional well-being, intellectual growth, and social skills. My approach to childcare is rooted in patience, understanding, and a genuine love for children. I'm a firm believer in open communication with parents and strive to keep them updated about their child's day, any concerns, or milestones achieved. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules while maintaining a positive and respectful relationship with the children in my care.

Hello! My name is Andrea and I am 31, married, and half-way through my Biochemistry degree at UNT. I am offering pet care and household services.

Household services - I am an excellent cook and can prepare a wide range of meals even with limited ingredients.
