Booked by 5 families in Blue Ridge, TX

Hello!!! My name is Alexa (I go by Lexi) and I have always had a passion for caring for children. Currently I am a public school music teacher for ages 5-11 and I absolutely love it! Before teaching elementary, I worked in a private preschool where the students would have a full day schedule of different activities to engage in. Additionally, I have experience teaching church youth ages 4-12 to lead worship and I have lots of experience with infants and toddlers. I would love to help your family or group with your child care needs.

Diya $12 per hour for 1 child

Hi, families. My name is Diya, and I am an incoming sophomore attending the University of Maryland. I am so excited to get to know, meet, and spend time with your family. I love bonding with children, especially with new, creative, and engaging activities that keep them stimulated and having a good time. I have worked at many children's tutoring services, all throughout high school, where I was exposed to various personalities and energy levels among children. I have also spent many years babysitting for my community when parents go out for date nights or other leisure activities. I also have interned at many pediatric dental clinics, as I am a pre-dental student so I have skills on working with any anxiety children may have in uncomfotable situations. Lastly, I have worked in daycares and summer camps with large groups of children over the summers. I am also able to do household services such as laundry, dishes, and cleaning the house. I have a large dog, so I would also be able to take care of any pets based on your requests. I am also CPR and AED certified to ensure that you feel safe leaving your child with me.
