Hello my name is Selena and I am 21 years old. I am originally from California but I moved to San Antonio for college. I am currently a sophomore attending A&M University-San Antonio. I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I am the oldest of three siblings and I when I was living at home I helped my mom with babysitting them when needed so I would say I have tons of experience with all ages. I also have experience babysitting elderly as my neighbor from back at home would pay me to watch her mother that was in her 80's. As for animals I myself own a cat along with a snake. My neighbors would hire me to feed their dogs and watch their houses while they were out of town so I also have experience with that as well.
“Thanks for your help on such short notice, I appreciate Selena she was on time and asked great questions to assure she could provide the best care for my daughter! Would hire again 🩷”
I love kids! I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I started with some neighborhood families and moved to being a nanny for another family. I love to teach children and keep them engaged without screens such as going outside to play or reading a book. As a nanny in the past, I would clean, cook, take the kids to dance class, and run errands for the family. I also have a background with childcare during ministry. I taught Sunday school class every Sunday for 3 years. I am a charismatic and outgoing person who loves to entertain and make anyone laugh. I treat everyone with respect no matter the age. Children should be allowed to think and dream in my opinion, and I encourage that!
Hi there! My name is Aurora, and I am a sophomore studying environmental engineering at Texas State University. I was a member of the Texas State Strutters dance team and I am an active member of Alpha Lambda Delta academic honor society. I have experience caring for younger cousins of mine, ranging in ages from 4-12. My responsibilities have included providing transportation to various locations, tutoring (specifically STEM), crafts, and spontaneous dance parties! I love working with kids and getting to see the world through their eyes. My favorite activities to do with kids of all ages are dancing, singing, building forts, drawing, and playing outdoors in safe, healthy spaces. I have 6+ years of experience in petcare, and I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I can cook, clean, run errands, and perform any related tasks to help out as best I can!
“Aurora was right on time and very pleasant to work with. She’s kind, professional, and the kids really liked her. We felt comfortable leaving them in her care and would definitely hire her again.”
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. ”
Hi! I’m Kamdyn I’m 18 years old and a senior at Sandra Day O’Connor High School. I plan to study Child Psychology after graduation because I’ve always loved working with kids and helping them grow. I’m currently offering child care, after-school care, and household help. Last summer, I worked at a Montessori school in Amarillo, where I cared for children from pre-K through 5th grade. My responsibilities included supervising, leading fun and educational activities, and keeping the days full of learning and laughter! I’m dependable, responsible, and hardworking—I can cook, clean, bake, and even run errands if needed. I’m also an animal lover (I have a dog of my own!), so pets are never a problem. I’d love the opportunity to help your family and make your days a little easier while keeping your kids safe and happy!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
