Hello! I am a former teacher and have extensive experience caring for children of all ages, including newborns. As a Mom of three grown children, I strongly believe in being proactive by providing guidance and positive support in age-appropriate and developmental level-appropriate activities, with an emphasis on growing and learning. My manner is calm and patient, with a focus on confidence building, clear communication, and fun! I am at all times aware that children model what adults do and say (both negative and positive!) I treat children with respect and kindness, without exception; I see mistakes as an opportunity to stop and gently learn the correct way. Each day should be filled with enthusiasm, positive energy, and lots of smiles! While nannying for a family, I strictly follow the parents' rules and guidelines, and work very hard to accomplish their expected outcomes for the child/children. I believe communication with parents, via phone, texts, pictures, videos, is very important. And I am at all times aware of and respect a family's privacy. I feel very comfortable (and love!) caring for newborns and infants; feedings (breast milk and formula); baby food preparation; frequent diaper changes, nap times, new stimulations through reading, music, toys, walks, outings, etc. For older children, my experience includes morning and bedtime routines; meal preparation and serving; school / lesson drop-offs and pick-ups; tutoring; homework supervision; play date supervision; screen time monitoring; learning through reading, music, crafts, outdoor play, library, museum and playplace visits, etc. I also have experience in almost every aspect of household assistance; grocery inventory and shopping (including searching several stores for that one special item!), meal prep, laundry, cleaning, etc. Additionally, I am now available for pet care / sitting. I am a “grandma” to a beautiful Siberian Forest cat and two adorable Pomeranians; I miss them whenever I am away! Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you!
I am a 28 year old. I have a degree in fashion merch and marketing. I love nature, reading, cooking, and sewing. I have many years of child care experience, I am an aunt of 4 nieces and nephews, who are from the ages of 4 to 12. Also have raised my little sister from newborn to 3yrs. I also love pets and very nurturing and patient when it comes to caring for others. I have extensive knowledge when it comes to taking care of kids and pets. I really love caregiving because it allows me to play an important role, have fun and enjoy the simple things in life again. God fearing, so I can assure you that your child or pet is in good hands and will not be mistreated by any means! Thanks for the consideration!
Hi - My name is Ahnesty and I'm currently a sophomore at UST. I am offering child care.

Hello! My name is Jasmyn, I’m a Junior at University of North Texas majoring in education.
