Skylar $15 per hour for 1 child

I’m Skylar, and I am a senior nursing student at TCU. I am offering child care, dog sitting, and senior services. I love being a babysitter and have experience babysitting with ages 3-6 since I was 15. During the summer, I work as a camp counselor for ages 8-12 and I love caring for kids! I have planned activities, cooked, ran errands, driven to and from school, and made crafts! I have three dogs at home, so I have experience with dog sitting for the past 10 years. I love all animals and would love to care for any! I am a nursing student, so I have two years of experience of senior care. I love caring for seniors and am very comfortable with senior care.

Ciarra 2 reviews
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Alvarado, TX

Hello families! My name is Ciarra, and I bring over 10 years of childcare experience, starting with helping care for children in my own family from a young age. Now as a proud mom to my 17-month-old son, I understand even more deeply how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your little one. I love engaging children through arts and crafts, creative play, and fun activities that encourage learning and exploration. My approach is gentle, patient, and nurturing, always focused on making kids feel safe and cared for. Along with childcare, I’m happy to assist with light household tasks such as tidying up, grocery shopping, or meal prep to help make your family’s day run a little smoother. You can count on me to be reliable, understanding, and flexible. Whether you need occasional help, consistent care, or last-minute support, I’ll provide the same level of love and attentiveness that I give my own child. As a mom myself, I know what it feels like to leave your child in someone else’s care — it can be exciting but also nerve-wracking. That’s why I take my role so seriously. I want every parent I work with to feel peace of mind knowing their child is not only safe, but happy, loved, and engaged while they’re with me. I also know how busy family life can get! Sometimes having an extra set of hands makes all the difference, so I’m more than happy to help with day-to-day things like light chores, errands, or grocery shopping. My goal is to support your household in a way that makes life easier, while giving your child a positive and caring environment. At the end of the day, I truly see this as more than just babysitting — it’s about building trust and being someone you can count on. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and be a dependable part of your support system. I look forward to meeting you all ❤️ FYI I offer pet feeding or sitting/drop in's and dog walking. anything extra I can do to help I am willing

We had a wonderful experience with Ciarra. She was great with our kids. She was very attentive and caring with them. Having her son join us was a great plate date for our little one as well. We will definitely work with Ciarra again if we need help watching our kids!
