Hello, my name is Evelynn and im currently a freshman in college! I have 5 other siblings, 4 nieces and nephews, and have had many pets of my own! I’ve grown up around children and have experience caring for younger ones. I helped watch and care for my baby brother for 10+ years now. I’ve also babysat my nephew and niece countless of times, from ages 0-4. I can confidently say that I am patient when dealing with kids. I love to interact and play along with their games while also ensuring safety and security. No matter the age , I engage and make sure to create a comfortable space for whoever I’m watching. As for pets, I’ve had dogs, cats, birds , turtles, and a hamster! I love animals and would love to watch/play with them. I do not have too much experience with senior care but am willing to gain! As for everything else , I have reliable transportation, am willing to pick up children if needed, can do house chores, and would love to build lasting connections with your family!
Hello! I have been watching babies and small children for close to 20 years. I am open to assisting with seniors doing non-medical chores, house sitting and watching and assisting with cats also.

Hi I’m Sarah!!! I been caring for children in their home and child care centers for the past twenty years. I’m fun, patient, caring and creative. I will be up for any task to help care for your family. I also have experience with special needs children. Look forward to hearing from you.
Hello! My name is Asia and I’ve been in the childcare industry for about 6 years! I’m currently a Speech-pathology major and special education minor at University of North Texas. I have a love of learning and teaching all ages of children. I have worked heavily with infants as well in daycare, churches, and home settings. I worked as a traveling Jovie nanny for almost 2 years and have lately been looking to work independently! I take care of 2 senior pups and a bunny, so pet care is no problem for me. Some of my hobbies are dance, video games, art, and music! I hope I can be a great match for your family!
Hi, I’m Tanya! I’m a mom of two (ages 19 and 16) with over 25 years of experience caring for children—from newborns to teens—in church and educational settings. I bring a warm, calm presence and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s crafting, baking, or getting outside. I’m also great at creating simple routines that help your home run smoothly and give kids a sense of stability. I’m dependable, organized, and love supporting families in a way that’s both helpful and encouraging. It would truly be a joy to care for your family!
