Kamdyn Helotes
$12 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Kamdyn I’m 18 years old and a senior at Sandra Day O’Connor High School. I plan to study Child Psychology after graduation because I’ve always loved working with kids and helping them grow. I’m currently offering child care, after-school care, and household help. Last summer, I worked at a Montessori school in Amarillo, where I cared for children from pre-K through 5th grade. My responsibilities included supervising, leading fun and educational activities, and keeping the days full of learning and laughter! I’m dependable, responsible, and hardworking—I can cook, clean, bake, and even run errands if needed. I’m also an animal lover (I have a dog of my own!), so pets are never a problem. I’d love the opportunity to help your family and make your days a little easier while keeping your kids safe and happy!

Brianna San Antonio
$20 per hour for 1 child

Howdy! My name is Brianna, and I am a 23-year-old San Antonio area local! I am a newlywed as of April and am looking for something to cure my post wedding baby-fever, which is why I am so happy that my family has recently welcomed two beautiful babies via my brother and sister, giving me even more recent infant care experience. Below you will find a little more information about me as a caregiver. Since I became an aunt at 8 years old I have loved working with kids, and have an extensive childcare background. From babysitting throughout high school to working as a babysitter and nanny this past year, I have had great experiences with the families I have worked with. I graduated from UT Austin in 2023 with a bachelors in Deaf education and a minor in American Sign Language. During my time in college I focused intently on child development, especially in language and social/emotional learning. These experiences were both through curriculum and hands on experience as an intern at Texas School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. There I was able to be a part of both a Preschool and Elementary STEM program. Since relocating to San Antonio I have also been able to work as a kindergarten/special education teacher at a local San Antonio charter! From my experience in the childcare, education, and food service industries I am a well rounded childcare provider! I worked in a professional setting for almost two years with kiddos ranging from 6 weeks - 6 years. I specialized in infant/toddler care during my time at the child development center, and was able to see so many children grow into fun-loving toddlers! I am adult, pediatric, and infant CPR/AED/First Aid trained not to mention that I also currently have an EvenFlo Pivot stroller and car seat, so I would not need one from you (if necessary) unless you have a preferred brand! Not to mention that as a former professional kitchen worker, I have a Food Handler’s certification as well, so I would be more than happy to help with baby-led weaning if you are interested. Excited to hear from you soon! :)

Sofia San Antonio
$15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sofia, I’m 19, and I’m a freshman at NVC. I’m currently working on my transfer to UTSA as a music major :) The services I offer are child care (preferably above the age of 5) and pet care. I prefer cats but I love dogs as well! I’ve been babysitting and pet sitting for as long as I can remember. I used to be acquainted with a dog breeder who paid me to supervise his puppies while he was on business trips, from when I was 8-13. When I was 12-17, I watched over my mother’s friend’s children (6 and 10) while they had girl time. My responsibilities have included feeding them, supervising them, helping with the occasional homework, and crafts. I can clean, cook simple meals, and run errands with appropriate compensation. The services I offer are child care (preferably above the age of 5) and pet care. I prefer cats but I love dogs as well!
