Booked by 3 families in Marion, TX

Hi, my name is Colin Finerghty! I am 20 years old and I’m currently a rising junior at St. Edward’s University where I’m studying Digital Media Management. As the older brother of one younger sister, I have always been surrounded by kids, and I bring over three years of babysitting and nannying experience to families I work with. I have cared for both boys and girls ranging from ages 2 to 14, and I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment. I am a social, bubbly, and energetic person who enjoys connecting with kids to make every experience both memorable and enjoyable, whether it is for a one-time job or building long-term relationships with families. In addition to childcare, I bring over seven years of pet sitting experience. I have cared for a wide range of animals including cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, and more through both personal ownership and professional pet sitting. I enjoy giving animals the same attention, care, and affection I provide to children, and I always make sure they are comfortable, well-fed, and happy while in my care. I also believe in collaboration with parents to make sure I meet each child’s specific needs and routines. I am great at cooking, so I can prepare meals and snacks that kids will enjoy while still keeping them healthy. Safety is always my top priority, and I am CPR certified. Looking forward to meeting your family and pets!

$15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Selena a first grade teacher who was born and raised in San Antonio. I’ve been working in the education sector for the past 6 years in South America and here in the United States. I enjoy working with kids and helping them learn through play, find their joy with reading and to allow their inner brilliance to shine through various creative crafts. I received my bachelors in Childhood and Special Education from NYU and my Masters in Responsible Management and Development from the University of Peace in Costa Rica. As a result of my 4 years in South America, I speak conversational Spanish and would love to continue practicing. I currently volunteer with Big Brothers Big Sisters and am apart of the Girl Scout Alum San Antonio chapter. I look forward to meeting your little ones and being a support to your family!

My mom was a caretaker for decades and I myself helped her over the years. I also worked at pet store and have been taking care of pets my whole life. I now work at a retirement home on the weekends. I’m able to cook, clean, help with homework, overall assistance, and any pets!

Eva was a great sitter! She is kind and caring and did a great job looking after my daughter. I would definitely hire her again! 🥰

Alex Spring Branch
$25 per hour for 1 child

I truly enjoy working with children and helping them learn, grow, and explore the world around them in a safe and nurturing environment. I’m 23 years old and have six years of experience working with kids, which has helped me develop strong patience, creativity, and communication skills. I love spending quality time with my family, and I bring that same warmth and positive energy into my caregiving. I’m also an animal lover and feel comfortable around pets, which helps create a caring and welcoming atmosphere in any home. I recently moved to Texas from California, where I worked in a toddler classroom at a Spanish immersion Montessori school. That experience strengthened my knowledge of child development and creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play.
