I grew up from a big family of 11. I helped my Mom raise and care my siblings. As they grew up I also help care for my nieces and nephews. Kids and Pets usually get along with me as I am a vibrant, nurturing and patient person. I love to sew, cook, dance and craft.
“Khoua arrived on time, listened to all my instructions and played with my son throughout the whole time. ”
Hi, I'm Emily :) I'm 29 years old, and I work from home full time. I’ve babysat for 8+ years on and off and volunteered at VBS for 5+ years. I love working with kids and have experience with various ages.
“Emily was on time and very professional. She was a blast for the kids, who were literally chanting, "Emily is the best!" We will definitely be using her in the future! Mom tested and kid approved. ”
I have over 13 years of experience with ages from newborn up until 14 years of age. I have babysat for families in the DFW area and I am currently completing my fieldwork rotation at an outpatient pediatric clinic for my occupational therapy doctorate program.
Hi! My name is Marcela, and I have nearly 3 years of childcare experience as an Au Pair and nanny in the United States. I have cared for children of different ages, helping with school drop-offs and pick-ups, homework, meal preparation, after-school activities, and creating a safe, fun, and positive environment. I am responsible, patient, organized, and caring. I enjoy encouraging children to be active, creative, and confident. I also have experience caring for pets, including dogs and cats, and I am comfortable assisting with light household tasks. I have a valid driver’s license and experience safely driving children to school, sports practices, camps, and other activities. I am bilingual in Spanish and English, which allows me to communicate effectively with families from diverse backgrounds and even help children learn a second language if desired. Families describe me as trustworthy, dependable, and attentive. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment where children can learn, grow, and feel happy every day.
Hello! I'm a Richardson native looking to help local families while earning a little extra income. I have a bachelor's degree from the University of Texas at Dallas and several years of experience working with children of all ages including infants through my time as a dance instructor. I'm happy to provide engaging, attentive care in your home, whether that means playing games, helping with homework, reading stories, or keeping little ones entertained. With your permission, I'm also happy to take children to a nearby park for some outdoor fun. I was recently married and have a dog and two cats, so I'm very comfortable around pets. I'm dependable, patient, and understand how important it is for parents to know their children are in caring and responsible hands. I look forward to meeting your family! Please note I do have an 8 am to 5 pm day job, so I will only be able to accommodate outside of these hours. A quick note about my reviews: You might notice I only have one review, and it's a few years old. That's because I took a break from babysitting while focusing on building my career after college. Rest assured, I've babysat for far more families than my profile suggests. The happy kids and relieved parents just weren't in the habit of leaving online reviews back then. 😊 I'm excited to be back and look forward to earning many more five-star reviews!
“Kelley arrived before time and was really friendly. She walked my son to the park and he had a great time. I highly recommend her. Thank you Kelley!”
