Mahsa Katy
$15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Mahsa. When I was in highscool I was apart of my school's Education and Training Program! My freshman year I took Principles of Education and Training, my sophmore year I took Child Growth and Development, and my junior and senior year I was in the Intructional Practicum. In the practicum, I went to either Tom Wilson, Keiko Davidson, or Odessa Kilpatrick elementary and was a teacher's assistant! Ive taught Prek-5th grade, spedning 6-12 weeks with each class I was helping. I bonded with my students, their parents, and the lead teachers so much. I made lesson plans, organized the classroom, graded assigments, taught class lessons, worked in small groups, worked with students who were apart of the special education program and tutore students indivisually. I now have an Educational Aide I certificate from Texas Education Agency (TEA). I absolutley loved my time with the kids. It made me so happy to know I got to help them grow as people. I was able to build a lot of trust with my students and form a real bond between us. My best memories with them are playing tag with all the kiddos at recess, really getting the chnace to know them through one on one converstaion, and reading books to the class while making sillt voices for the chacters. Right now I'm studying for my Bachlors of Liberal Arts - Psychology, with a minor in Child Development and Family Studies. My biggest dream is to become a childrens therapist. I have a lot of passion for psychology and I LOVE spending time with kids so its the perfect fit for me. :) I have my own car, and am willing to do anything "extra" to accomidate for the needs of the child.

I am CPR and First Aid certified for infants, children and adults. I am a full time preschool teacher during the week. I have been working with children in one capacity or another for over 20 years. I have taught in preschool and Sunday school settings, babysat, and run the childcare for a number of non-profit events and organizations. I have experience working with newborn babies through preteens. I love working with children of all ages, watching them grow and being a part of those 'a-ha!' moments. Every age offers something new and unique. I love helping the younger ones grow, learn new skills and explore this amazing world that we live in. With older children it is so much fun to play games, make believe, and help them as they explore and learn about the more intricate things in life. I look forward to speaking with you about your needs soon!

Lady Johanna 1 review
Houston
$20 per hour for 1 child

Seeking for a loving, experienced and reliable nanny?! My name is Johanna, I am 27 years old and I am looking for a babysitting/nanny position, preferably full time. I am a former au pair (More than 2.5 years in the program) and I have 9+ years of experience caring for children from newborn to 17 years old. I am warm, loving, creative, energetic and highly dependable caregiver dedicated to helping to shape children into confident and happy people who will carry those traits on into adulthood. • Bilingual (Spanish (native) and English). • Creates a fun, safe and stimulating environment that helps children meet developmental milestones. • Uses creative methods and has experience in helping/assisting children with their homework, school projects, reading assignments, and studying after school. • Can help with cooking/meal prep (ensuring adherence to strict allergen guidelines) and light cleaning.

I can’t say enough great things about Lady! She has taken care of our 18 month old since he was about 6 months and he loves her! The first time she took care of our son, she listened carefully and did everything that I asked her perfectly. She asked me all the right questions too! She is SUPER reliable and punctual which I really appreciate. She reads to him, plays with him, and has a caring and nurturing personality about her that makes me feel at ease. I know he’ll always be cared for well when she’s here :)
