Lolia $22 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Dale, TX

I’m a responsible, patient, and caring person who genuinely enjoys helping families and creating a safe, comfortable environment for children. I’m dependable, organized, and attentive, while still being fun and easygoing. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, meals, homework, playtime, and keeping things tidy around the home. I’m also good at following instructions and adjusting to each family’s preferences and routines. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident about who they’re leaving their children with, so I take communication, safety, and reliability seriously. I’d love the opportunity to support a family and make their day a little easier.

Cassie $20 per hour for 1 child

Howdy! I’m Ms. Cassie, and I have five years of experience and wonderful memories working with children. After graduating from UT, I found myself employed as a nanny, regular sitter, and now a full-time teacher at a small daycare. I love working with children of all ages; I primarily take care of little ones 3 months to 7 years. I am looking to supplement my income with regular or one-time sitting. I have experience with sibling groups, potty training, bedtime, cooking, and more. I love playing games and pretend, reading, sensory play, and building with different materials. Please contact me if you have any questions!

Sarah $18 per hour for 1 child

Caring for others has always come naturally to me. Whether it’s looking after kids, helping seniors feel supported, or making sure pets feel loved, I believe everyone deserves kindness and patience. I’m dependable, attentive, and great at creating a warm, safe environment. I also enjoy keeping things organized, preparing meals, cleaning, and making daily life a little easier. Most of all, I love building real connections and making people feel valued, comfortable, and cared for.

"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!"
