Ally Jo Houston
$15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Allyson Jo, or more commonly known as Ally Jo and I have over 10 years of experience caring for children ranging from infants to teenagers. I am CPR and First Aid certified and passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and thrive. My childcare experience includes multiple long-term nanny positions. I cared for a family with a 5 year old boy and 2 year old boy while also helping care for their dog. I also spent two years nannying for a family with a 6 year old girl and a 6 month old boy, along with their cat. These experiences taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and building strong relationships with both children and parents! In addition to my freelance nannying, I am a high school volleyball coach, which has strengthened my leadership, communication, and mentoring skills. I am also currently studying sociology in college, where I enjoy learning about human behavior, relationships, and community. I also have three wonderful nephews (ages 3, 5, and 7) who keep me active and remind me how important creativity, energy, and kindness are when caring for children. Outside of childcare, I co-own a small business with my sister creating personalized hand-painted banners. Running our business has allowed me to express my creativity and develop strong organizational and communication skills. I love incorporating creativity into activities with children, whether that means arts and crafts, imaginative play, or fun hands-on projects. I'm a huge animal lover and previously worked at a doggy daycare, and regularly pet sit; so I'm very comfortable caring for pets alongside children. Whether it's helping with organizing activities, preparing meals, playing outdoors, or caring for family pets, I'm happy to support your family's needs. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible, and engaging, and I would love the opportunity to provide excellent care for your children and peace of mind for you.

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kari, a creative, dependable, and compassionate caregiver with 10+ years of childcare experience, 15 years of household experience, and 4 years of professional pet-sitting experience. I genuinely enjoy caring for people, children, pets, and homes, and I take pride in creating a safe, comfortable, and positive environment for every family I work with. I’ve been babysitting since I was about 12, starting with my younger cousins and nephews, including babies just a few months old. Since then, I’ve cared for children ranging from newborns through young teens (up to age 16). I also worked for two years at 24 Hour Fitness Plus in their childcare program, giving me professional experience caring for multiple children and keeping them safe, engaged, and entertained. I love creative activities, imaginative play, music, storytelling, arts and crafts, and helping with homework. My background in theatre also makes me especially comfortable creating fun, engaging activities for kids of different ages and personalities. I’m currently completing my pediatric and adult CPR training and certification. I also offer household services and have about 15 years of experience cleaning and caring for homes. I work quickly but thoroughly and pay close attention to detail. I’ve been recommended by previous clients because I take pride in doing a great job. Most importantly, there is absolutely no judgment here! Whether you need routine cleaning, tidying, organizing, or help getting your home back under control, I’m happy to help. I’ve been pet sitting for about four years and have experience caring for senior pets, disabled pets, and pets who need medications. I’m comfortable with feeding, administering medication, providing companionship, and following individual care instructions. I’ve also grown up with pets and had my own cat for 11 years, so I understand how much our animals mean to us. I’m also interested in senior care. I helped my grandmother care for my great-grandmother until she passed, and I’m comfortable providing companionship, assistance with meals and feedings, entertainment, and day-to-day support. I’m especially happy to keep someone company through conversation, music, singing, games, or simply being a friendly presence. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, creative, and genuinely care about the people and animals I work with. My goal is for families to feel comfortable knowing their loved ones and their homes are in capable, caring hands.
