Booked by 1 family in Celina, TX

Hello, My name is Key and I'm currently a student at Texas Woman’s University. I am available for child care, senior care, and light household services. I was previously a nanny for a family of 3 children for over a year. I’ve also watched newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 16 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and dinner help and bedtime routines. I can also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands.

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.

Ethan $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ethan, and I’m a dependable, energetic, and service-oriented professional with a diverse background working with families, students, and busy households. I previously served on staff at several churches, including Prestonwood Baptist Church, where I worked as a Worship Associate in the Student Ministry—giving me years of experience caring for and mentoring middle-school and high-school–aged kids. I’m currently a full-time musician, wedding singer, and DJ, and I’m also studying to become a Certified Personal Trainer. Because my work is contract-based, I value opportunities that offer flexibility while still allowing me to show up fully, reliably, and with a great attitude. I’m comfortable working with older children (6th grade and up), and I’m also available for house sitting and pet sitting. I’m detail-oriented, respectful of your space, and happy to help with light household tasks if needed. Whether you’re looking for someone trustworthy to care for your home, your pets, or your kids, I take pride in being someone you can count on. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and make your life a little easier!
