Deja $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Deja, and I'm a dependable, patient, and energetic caregiver with several years of experience working with children of all ages. I previously worked as a kindergarten teacher and have also coached youth basketball, which has strengthened my ability to create a fun, structured, and safe environment for kids. I'm currently a Doctor of Physical Therapy student, so I have a strong understanding of child safety, health, and development. I am CPR and First Aid certified and enjoy engaging children through games, outdoor activities, arts and crafts, reading, sports, and homework help. Families can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and attentive while making sure their children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for. Whether you need occasional date-night care or a consistent sitter, I strive to provide a positive experience for both children and parents.

$21 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 4 families in Carrollton, TX

Hi! My name is Tiara, and caring for children has been part of my life for many years. I’ve been around children of all ages from infancy through school age, which has helped me develop a patient, nurturing, and attentive approach. I have professional experience in daycare and early childhood programs, where I focused on creative play, fine motor activities, and age-appropriate routines. I also previously worked in a pediatric urgent care, supporting children and families and strengthening my ability to stay calm, reassuring, and attentive in fast-paced situations. I’m CPR certified and value creating a safe, engaging, and comfortable environment where children feel supported and at ease. I’m primarily available evenings after 3:30 PM and anytime on weekends, and I enjoy helping families with date nights and occasional care.

Booked by 1 family in Carrollton, TX

Hello, My name is Andrea, and I am a 25-year-old who enjoys engaging with children. I have worked with kids practically my whole life, from working in a clinical setting with kids on the autism spectrum to running the Sunday school department at my local church. I am currently working towards my bachelor's degree in psychology. I am also bilingual (fluent in Spanish), which may be something the children would enjoy learning.
