Hello- My name is Carmen I am currently a student at TCC. I am fluent in English and Spanish, I am offering my services with child care, pet care, senior care, as well as household services. I have been a babysitter as long as I can remember; not only for family and friends, but for families that need my services. I love being a babysitter and working with kids, I have experienced with all age groups from new born to 15 year olds. My responsibilities have ranged from driving kids to practices, grocery shopping, tutoring, crafts, etc. I am always open to pet care and senior care. Having 2 dogs of my own and taking care of my elders in my family, I have learned to be patient and learning to problem solve fast at my feet. I can also cook healthy and tasty foods and snacks. While always being up for a good challenge and obstacles that may arise!!

Carmen was wonderful! She was prompt, communicative, and the kids took right to her! She is a sweetheart with a heart for kids! My kids loved her :-)

Joel $20 per hour for 1 child

I’m an experienced and dependable caregiver with a strong background in working with children of all ages. I’m a parent of three and an active uncle to my nephew, all of whom attend school in the Mansfield ISD. I’m deeply involved in their daily routines, academics, and extracurricular activities. I handle school drop-offs and pick-ups, help with homework, and participate in field trips and classroom events throughout the year. In addition to caring for my own children, I volunteer regularly across all grade levels in the MISD district, which has given me hands-on experience supporting students and teachers in different age groups and learning environments. I also serve on various committees within the district as both a parent and community leader. I’m known for being patient, responsible, and organized, with a calm and positive personality that helps children feel safe, supported, and valued. Whether helping with schoolwork, coordinating after-school activities, or simply creating a fun and caring environment, I take pride in providing consistent and trustworthy care that parents can rely on.
