Booked by 10 families in Hurst, TX

I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. I’ve worked with all ages from infants and up. I was a preschool teacher for awhile and I also have experience working with special education. Ive nannied for a 4 year old boy, a family with 4 kids (ages 10, 8, 5, 6 months) and occasionally for a family with 11, 9 and 3 year olds. I have my own car so I don’t mind transporting or running errands as needed. I’m CPR/BLS certified, almost medical assistant certified, a non smoker, I like to cook, and don’t mind light janitorial and household duties. I Can speak intermediate Spanish. I know enough to be able to teach someone else how to speak it and I would love to learn more together as well. I am based in Texas but I travel to California every so often to visit family.

Hi there! I'm Derry, a dedicated and fun-loving babysitter/nanny with over 18 years of experience working with kids of all ages, including groups of up to 6 children at a time! As a CPR, First Aid, and AED certified professional, I prioritize your little ones' safety above all. With a background working at Children's Courtyard and currently at a daycare, I've honed my skills in creating engaging activities, arts, and crafts that kids adore. Movie nights with popcorn are a favorite of mine, too! Music and dance are passions of mine, and I love sharing them with the kiddos. When I'm not working, I'm spending time with my family and my furry baby. I'm available for date nights, short-term jobs, and offer references upon request. Let's create some unforgettable memories together! Contact me to schedule your next babysitting adventure!

“Our daughter had a great time with Derry. Will hire again.”

Booked by 32 families in Hurst, 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!”

Ava $17 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Ava Marie. I’ll be attending UTA in the fall. I have worked in the service industry, and I’m transitioning into childcare because I love teaching kids to be creative and free in spirit! When it comes to my experience, I have helped raise my younger twin sisters my entire life. I love being playful, spending time outdoors, and being active! I am naturally a silly person that loves being around children because they are youthful and easy to inspire! I am a phenomenal role model for kids to look up to! I would love to work as a teacher in Spain or in Costa Rica! I admire the gentle parenting approach, and would love to gain some insightful parenting skills from working in different family dynamics. I am currently looking for part time work, and have flexible availability. Please let me know if you have any questions!

"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!"
