Hello! My name is Allyson I am thirty years old and a mom to two lovely girls! I am looking to do some date night babysitting! A little about me!

In Washington I worked in the school district as a para in SPED for six years and now I have been hired on to work in Belton! I have had background checks at my previous/current jobs along with a portable background check through DCYF and reliable transportation.

Elizabeth Belton
$15 per hour for 1 child

My name is Elizabeth, and I am a Senior at the University of Mary Hardin–Baylor, pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education. I plan to graduate in May 2026 and aspire to teach at the elementary level, as I truly enjoy working with young learners and helping them grow academically and emotionally. I’ve had several wonderful opportunities to work with children. For the past two summers, I worked at a daycare, where I cared for children ranging in age from infants to six years old. In addition, I love spending time with my two-year-old niece and nine-year-old nephew, which has further strengthened my nurturing and patient nature. I take pride in being patient, kind, punctual, and an effective communicator—qualities I believe are essential in creating a positive and supportive learning environment for children.

Booked by 1 family in Salado, TX

Hello! My name is Joyce! I have 4 years of volunteer experience in the children's ministry at church, of caring for infants through 13 years old. Additionally, I have a year of experience as a foster care support sitter. I am open to pet sitting, small sized dogs and cats, as well as light housekeeping and senior care. I have a reliable vehicle, and am a non-smoker. My schedule is flexible. I work 100% remote, and would prefer something part time/occassional. However, full time may work if it fits my schedule! Please feel free to reach out and we can discuss. I enjoy reading, traveling and learning new things! I am currently taking up sewing, and learning Spanish! I believe a child's gifts should be strengthened. I love to implement new activities, such as puzzles, reading books, arts & crafts, board games, cooking etc. Playing and learning are crucial for kids! I can pick up/drop off, take to the park etc. For seniors, I am willing to run errands, drop off to appointments, light housecleaning (dishes, vacuum, laundry).

If I can give Joy six stars, I definitely would. She is extremely punctual and a great communicator. My kids instantly felt comfortable around her. I’m a stay at home mom and don’t really like people I don’t know watching my children, but starting with the interview me and my husband both felt very confident that she would do an amazing job. I love how she plays pretend when my children are being a little difficult and does activities with them. 100% recommend her.

Courtney Killeen
$16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Courtney, a dedicated, nurturing caregiver with over 18 years of hands-on experience working with children of alI ages! I have 16 years (and counting ) in the school district, 9 years in a school clinic, and 2 years in a daycare caring for newborns through age five. I’ve spent most of my life helping kids learn, grow, feel better, and feel safe—sometimes all in the same hour😂 I’m calm under pressure, great with routines, and genuinely enjoy the little quirks that make each child their own tiny universe. Whether it’s soothing a fussy baby, guiding a busy toddler, or supporting a school-age kid through homework and big feelings, I bring patience, humor, and reliability with me. If you’re looking for a caregiver who’s experienced, warm, and truly loves working with children, I’d love to be part of your family’s village.☺️
