Howdy! My name is Luke, and I'm a sophomore Kinesiology major at Texas A&M University. After undergrad, I'm looking to go to occupational therapy school to become a certified occupational therapist, preferably in pediatrics. I'm dependable, patient, and fun-loving, and I like keeping kids active and engaged whether that's playing games, being outside, or helping with homework and routines. I'm also CPR/AED and First Aid certified, so safety is always a priority for me. What matters most to me in a job is a parent who has clear expectations for what they want. I'm not afraid of direct standards, and at the end of the day, I'm here for you, whatever that need may be!
Although I currently don't have professional caregiving experience, I am a friendly and patient college-educated individual who is certified in First Aid/CPR (adult & pediatric) and is in the process of becoming a certified clinical medical assistant. I look to enjoy supporting families by providing attentive, reliable care for children between 6 months - 12 years old. I'm happy to engage your children with board games, puzzles, and educational activities if needed. I like to meet children where they're at, so if your child favors a more energizing personality, then I can do that, or if they favor a more calm persona, then I can do that as well. I will follow your lead on household rules and communicate updates using your preferred method. I am very comfortable with pets if any are present; light housekeeping and light meal preparation is something I'm willing to help with too.
I have a masters in criminal justice and have over 10 years experience working with children of all ages. Prior to working in the banking industry, I worked with the City of Houston in the Parks and Recreation department for 12 years and was trained to work with special needs adults and children.
Hi! My name is Kayla! I’m a friendly, dependable, and patient babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages and love keeping them entertained with age-appropriate activitiesI’m also happy to help with homework, meals, bedtime routines, and keeping things tidy while the kids are having fun. My goal is always to create a safe, comfortable, and positive environment where children can be themselves and parents can feel confident while away.
Hi! I’m Alessia, a second-year student at the University of Houston studying biochemistry on the pre-med track. As the oldest of four siblings, I’ve spent years helping care for children and understand the importance of patience, responsibility, and creating a positive environment. I also have 5 years of experience as a Sunday school teacher and 3 years of hospital volunteer experience in the ER, Medical-Surgical, and Pediatrics units. I enjoy working with children and helping them learn, grow, and have fun while staying safe. I’m dependable, attentive, and caring, and I can assist with homework, meal preparation, light housekeeping, bedtime routines, and engaging activities like games and crafts. Families can count on me to provide reliable, compassionate care and clear communication.
