Hi! I'm Gniyah and I've been working with children of all ages - from tiny newborns to energetic teens - for over five years. I truly love what l do. Helping kids grow, learn, and feel safe and supported is something I'm passionate about. My approach is a balance of structure and freedom. I believe kids thrive when they know what's expected of them, but also when they're given space to explore, ask questions, and follow their curiosity. I enjoy getting outside with the kids, whether we're going for a walk, playing in the yard, or turning a simple outing into a learning adventure. Some things | can help with: * Newborn care * Potty training * Meal prep/snacks * Homework help * Outdoor play and learning activities I'm based in Houston and speak English. Families I've worked with describe me as dependable, calm, and patient, but also someone who knows how to keep kids engaged!
Hello, I am Ms. Doris (or Dee) and I am 29. I am offering childcare, senior care and household services. As a compassionate and attentive caregiver with a strong background in Applied Behavioral Analysis. Hence, I worked with kids on the spectrum (Autism Spectrum Disorder, Asperger's Syndrome...) I have experience working with kids in professional settings and in home babysitting. I have watched kids from different age groups (infants, toddlers...) since I was 15 years old. I can help with homework and tutoring. I enjoy dancing and taking walks outside. I have obtained my bachelor's in psychology from Methodist University in North Carolina. I can help with light Housekeeping, cleaning and cooking. I have a driver's license and a car. I grew up in a big family: I have in total 7 siblings and took care of 5 of them as I was growing up. I learned very early on how to assist my siblings at a very young age. Working in different settings (in home, in clinics) as a Behavioral Therapist gave me more insight, experience, knowledge and patience with kids.
I am a devoted caregiver and family-oriented individual with a lifelong passion for helping others. As a mother of four and a proud grandmother, I’ve spent years nurturing children of all ages, from newborns to young adults. My caregiving journey has extended beyond my own family—I have over 15 years of experience supporting individuals with disabilities in both home and community settings, as well as more than 5 years dedicated to senior care. I bring patience, empathy, and resilience to every role, including working with individuals who may be considered “difficult.” I believe in meeting people where they are, offering compassion, and creating a safe, supportive environment. Outside of caregiving, I am an animal lover at heart. I volunteer at an OTTB horse rescue, have owned a horse myself, and currently share my home with beloved dogs and cats. Whether caring for people or animals, I find joy in building connections, offering comfort, and making a positive difference in the lives around me.

I also do have experience with helping with homework as well. I’m willing to babysit for all age groups! I also am very good with pets! Can’t wait to meet your family !

"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!"
