Hi! I’m Destinee!! I’m currently a CNA and I’ve worked as a pediatric CNA, so I have real hands-on experience caring for kids and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. I’m also BLS CPR certified. I’m super patient, easygoing, and I genuinely enjoy being around kids. I like doing things like crafts, playing games, helping with homework, or just keeping them entertained and happy. At the same time, I take safety really seriously and always stay attentive. I’m reliable and understanding, and I’m happy to help out with things like meals, bedtime routines, or light cleaning if needed. I’d love to be someone you can trust with your kids and make things easier for your family!!!
Hi! My name is Grace, and I’m 18 years old with experience caring for children in both family settings and a professional environment. I currently work as a part time library assistant at Garland Quarrels Elementary school, where I help support and supervise kids daily. I’m responsible, patient, and love creating a safe and fun environment for children. I have completed CPR training in high school and am in the process of obtaining my official certification. I’m reliable, organized, and comfortable helping with homework, light meal prep, and bedtime routines. I would love the opportunity to support your family!
Hi, I'm Azaria! I'm 25 years old and with a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I specialize in working with children and have over 11 years of experience caring for kids through babysitting, camp counseling, and my professional career. I've had the opportunity to work with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers! Working with children has always been something I'm passionate about. I'm patient, nurturing, creative, dependable, and attentive to each child's individual needs. My background in mental health has helped me develop strong communication skills, an understanding of child development, and the ability to create a safe, supportive environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I love finding fun and engaging ways to keep kids entertained, whether through arts and crafts, imaginative play, reading, games, outdoor adventures, or other age-appropriate activities. I also enjoy helping children express their emotions, build confidence, and navigate big feelings in a supportive way. I'm happy to assist with meal and snack preparation, bedtime routines, homework, and maintaining your family's established routines. Even with my full-time career, I continue babysitting because I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and building connections with families in my community. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their little ones in someone else's care, and I strive to provide that peace of mind through compassionate, responsible, and attentive caregiving. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and help create a fun, safe, and positive environment where your children can feel happy, supported, and cared for!
Pet sitting on and off for about 5 years. Love animals and am involved in a cat rescue. Have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. Have 4 cats of my own so understand what it's like to desire a trusted sitter.
Hi! My name is Saroya, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who truly enjoys working with children. I’ve loved caring for kids since I was 15, and I have experience helping with working with children in a professional setting and babysitting, which has helped me become patient, attentive, and understanding. I’m comfortable with tasks like preparing simple meals, helping with homework, and keeping kids entertained in a safe and positive environment. I always make sure to follow parents’ instructions closely and prioritize children’s safety and well-being. In addition to babysitting, I also offer other services such as light housekeeping and pet sitting, so I’m happy to help out wherever needed to make things easier for your family. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and create a safe, fun environment for your children
