Hi, my name is Vianney, I have worked caring for littles since age 15 and now care for my grandparents as well. I absolutely love infants, children, and seniors. I have experience in all ages.

Booked by 1 family in Grapevine, TX

I am a 23 year old college graduate currently working full-time at a Title/Law Firm. Previously, I worked as a tutor at The Confidence Group in Dallas, TX, from February 2023 to May 2024, where I supported 3rd–8th grade students in Dallas ISD through personalized lesson plans, including specialized assistance for students with special needs. From June 2017 to May 2020, I served as a Youth Golf Instructor at The First Tee in El Paso, TX, teaching children golf skills and incorporating the organization’s Core Values, such as Integrity, Sportsmanship, Courtesy, Respect, etc. Eventually I was given the responsibility of helping to plan and lead sessions for different age groups within the program, but mainly focusing on the 3-5 year old and 7-8 year old age groups. In high school, I was in a STEM program that specialized in health care/medical fields which allowed me to work hospital rotations where I gained experience in basic levels of caregiving and crisis management. Additionally, I volunteered at the Ronald McDonald House Charities, providing support to families and participating in social service efforts. For the past three years, I have babysat for one family, assisting their child with schoolwork, and for the past four years, I have provided pet sitting services—mainly for dogs—for multiple families. I am also certified in CPR and First Aid.

Tanya $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I’m Tanya! I’m a mom of two (ages 19 and 16) with over 25 years of experience caring for children—from newborns to teens—in church and educational settings. I bring a warm, calm presence and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s crafting, baking, or getting outside. I’m also great at creating simple routines that help your home run smoothly and give kids a sense of stability. I’m dependable, organized, and love supporting families in a way that’s both helpful and encouraging. It would truly be a joy to care for your family!

Booked by 32 families in Grapevine, TX

My name is Leila! I am a Master's student at UNT pursuing my MBA in Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management. I graduated from UT Arlington with a BA in Communication Studies, specializing in the organizational communication track. I currently work in Human Resources, but I am open to occasional babysitting roles and tutoring opportunities. In college, I was an avid volunteer across DFW with experience volunteering internationally and I love working with children. I was a nanny throughout college and loved my nanny families so so much. I've been a camp counselor, a band coach, and a committed volunteer through the service cohort of my leadership society at school. I have created long lasting bonds with my employers and have consistently created environments in my workplace that are inclusive, loving, and positive. Among my various volunteer experiences, a highlight I've had is working as a supplemental English teacher in the beautiful community of Jiquilillo, in Chinandega, Nicaragua, with GIVE Volunteers. In my work with children, I teach critical values to encourage positive mindset, creative thinking, and the exploration of new ideas. Those values are imperative for the youth of today and the global citizens of tomorrow. I have a very holistic approach to parenting! Reach out to me via private message for interview scheduling. I don't accept bookings without initial contact from the guardians. Open to occasional roles at this time. ***Please let me know if you have sick children prior to booking!*** Updated: 03/2026

“She was absolutely wonderful with my cats! We hired her during our wedding weekend to bring our cats to the venue for some quick photos, and it was such a relief knowing they were being cared for by someone so kind and dependable. She kept us updated, took great care of the girls, and was incredibly patient (even when my oldest cat decided she wanted absolutely nothing to do with the plan 😅😂) She genuinely went above and beyond, and it was obvious how much she cared about making sure everything went smoothly and treating the cats with patience and gentleness. I’m so grateful for all of her help during such a busy and special time in our lives. I would absolutely trust her with my cats again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

"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!"
