$20 per hour for 1 child
Seeking for a loving, experienced and reliable nanny?! My name is Johanna, I am 27 years old and I am looking for a babysitting/nanny position, preferably full time. I am a former au pair (More than 2.5 years in the program) and I have 9+ years of experience caring for children from newborn to 17 years old. I am warm, loving, creative, energetic and highly dependable caregiver dedicated to helping to shape children into confident and happy people who will carry those traits on into adulthood. • Bilingual (Spanish (native) and English). • Creates a fun, safe and stimulating environment that helps children meet developmental milestones. • Uses creative methods and has experience in helping/assisting children with their homework, school projects, reading assignments, and studying after school. • Can help with cooking/meal prep (ensuring adherence to strict allergen guidelines) and light cleaning.
“I can’t say enough great things about Lady! She has taken care of our 18 month old since he was about 6 months and he loves her! The first time she took care of our son, she listened carefully and did everything that I asked her perfectly. She asked me all the right questions too! She is SUPER reliable and punctual which I really appreciate. She reads to him, plays with him, and has a caring and nurturing personality about her that makes me feel at ease. I know he’ll always be cared for well when she’s here :)”

Taylor $15 per hour for 1 child
I began working with infants, toddlers, and children at the age of 15 for a MDO program, I eventually became a nanny and worked at Texas lions camp with special needs children. I love being there to support individuality, independence, and creativity. My senior care experience comes from the 2 years I helped care for my great grandmother after her Alzheimer’s diagnosis when I was 14. My specialty as far as care is working with children with autism. I also have extensive experience with various disabilities after working at Texas lions camp doing 24/7 care for a summer. I was a live in nanny for a school age boy for 2 years. I worked as a nanny for 3 school age kids (ages 6-14) for a year. As a nanny I was responsible for school pick-ups, meal prep, errands, as well as general childcare.
