Gwennyth $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is gwennyth and i'm a college student here in Dallas. I have 2 dogs of my own and grew up with little brothers so I'm super familiar with both! Child care: Open to all age ranges; I love arts and crafts and can help with homework/tutoring. I myself like to keep myself busy with stimulating games or arts and crafts. Pet care: Open to all breeds and sizes! My personal babies are a german shepard (3.5yo) and frenchie (1.5yo) so i'm well equipped. Household: Open to running errands, cleaning, organizing and very flexible with your needs. While I do offer to clean, that is not my primary job/interest so if that is something you're interested in, i'd appreciate if the supplies were available from you :)

Booked by 1 family in Plano, TX

I am a dedicated and nurturing caregiver with extensive experience working with children of all ages. Having worked in professional caregiving facilities with children 9 months - 5 years old, I have honed my skills in creating a safe, fun, and educational environment for young children. My background in child development education ensures that I understand the unique needs and developmental stages of young children. I have extensive work experience with children that have behaviors and mental health concerns building relationships and ensuring everyone is safe. Additionally, I have hands-on experience caring for my own nieces and nephews, further enhancing my ability to provide loving and reliable care. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth and well-being. I have a natural calming energy that loves to be creative, active, and goofy at times all while ensuring those around me are safe and knowing they are accepted and cared for.

“Amazing job taking care of my beautiful baby girl! Please book her!”

"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!"
