Booked by 1 family in Friendswood, TX

I come from a large family with lots of cousins, of which I am the oldest girl. I have helped raise many children, and have two children of my own. I have many years of experience, deep cleaning and organizing, as well as had employment at a learning center in Baytown for two years. I worked with ages 6 months to 12 years, and I have been CPR certified for adults, children, and infants. I have a passion for caring for others, and I absolutely love animals. I have cared for rodents, fish, cats, and dogs in the past, and currently have a two year-old mixed breed puppy who I trained myself.

“Xoe is an absolute sweetheart. She has a passion for helping people. She's gentle, caring and thoughtful and that's EXTREMELY important.”

Luke $15 per hour for 1 child

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!

Aerial 2 reviews
$14 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Aerial and I am a dependable, caring, and hardworking caregiver. As the oldest sister of 5 siblings from the ages of 2-17 I have a natural nurturing spirit. I have years of hands-on experience helping care for children of different ages. I enjoy cooking, cleaning, arts and crafts, providing homework help, and using my cosmetology skills for fun and creative activities. I am always willing to lend a helping hand and support families wherever I can to create a safe, positive, and supportive environment your children.

“I’ve had the pleasure of having Aerial babysit for my family, and I highly recommend her. She is dependable, caring, and attentive with children. From the very beginning, she was friendly, patient, and easy to communicate with, which made me feel comfortable trusting her with my child. Aerial does a wonderful job keeping children engaged, entertained, and safe. She follows instructions carefully, arrives on time, and handles responsibilities with professionalism and maturity. What I appreciated most was how genuinely caring she was. My child always enjoyed spending time with her and felt comfortable around her. Any family would be fortunate to have Aerial as their babysitter. She is trustworthy, responsible, and has a natural ability to connect with children. I would gladly have her babysit again and would confidently recommend her to other parents looking for reliable childcare.”

Jamie $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jamie I am currently a senior in highschool and I am attending college at A&M university. I have been working at mainsqueeze juice company for a year and a half so I do have job experience but most importantly I do have experience with children. I love being a babysitter and I have cared for kids from newborns all the way to 13 years old! I have babysat for families in my neiborhood and have driven their kids to places needed, daycare, etc. I can always help your kid(s) with homework and I am a very good good so I can always ensure they will have good meals/meal preps if needed. I love hanging out make making sure that whomever I am caring for, there safety and protection is first. I have grown up with animals all my life between 3 dogs 2 cats and various cage pets as well as pet sitting for other families. I get off of school at 2:45 but every other day I get off at 12:45 (kind of confusing but I go to Lutheran south academy so we have block scheduling) and I am interested in an afterschool job or if you are needing any help on the weekends! Thank you!
