"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Ashley $16 per hour for 1 child
Hey there! My name is Ashley! I have been working with children, seniors, and disabled adults for 17 years now. As a teen I was the primary caregiver for my disabled grandmother and once she passed away I became a licensed massage therapist. Since then I have been working almost exclusively with disabled individuals of all ages and abilities. I have a huge passion for early childhood development and love to assist families in whatever ways I can. Outside of that I have babysat frequently for friends of the family and people I have met throughout my career. I am no stranger to cleaning, cooking, feeding, toileting, or assisting with any activity you or your loved one may need help with. Feel free to ask any questions you may have! I also have a current/valid CPR Certification for adults, children, and infants.

Hi! My name is Claire and I graduated SMU in 2022, and am now at SMU again getting my Master’s degree. I love reading, baking, and camping with my friends when I have time. I’m the oldest child in my family, so I grew up taking care of my younger siblings; in addition I’ve worked at summer camps, taught art classes, and have been a tutor for elementary and middle school kids, so I can help with homework when needed.

Booked by 20 families in Forney, TX
Hi parents, My name is Roma and I love babysitting/dog sitting. I believe it’s important to take care of those who cannot take care of themselves. I have a big family and they’ve instilled important values and professional work ethics on me. I work in the medical field as a pharmacy technician. It’s a rewarding experience as I keep in touch with my patients occasionally , as you build long-lasting relationships throughout the months and sometimes years! I volunteer, as well through CERT. It’s an acronym for Community Emergency Response Team. We prepare/train fellow community members in what to do incase there is an emergency life-threatening situation. As you can see..I like to stay busy and keep my mind sharp. I look forward to meeting you and your family soon and hopefully building fun memories :]
