Maria 1 review
$26 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Missouri City, TX

Hi – my name is Maria, I’m bilingual (Spanish & English) and I care for infants and toddlers. I have about two years of hands-on experience, including working in a daycare, and helping care for my younger sister and my nieces and nephews over the years. I am most comfortable with infants and toddlers and am familiar with daily routines like feeding, naps, diaper changes, and playtime. I enjoy simple, age-appropriate activities such as reading, music, sensory play, and getting kids outside for park time or neighborhood walks. I am calm, dependable, and attentive, and I am comfortable caring for more than one young child at a time. I also sometimes bring my 1-year-old with me to childcare roles, with family approval, and believe this can be a good fit for families with infants or toddlers.

“Maria arrived promptly and was very friendly. She engaged with my son and immediately created a connection. She drove my son to school, he arrived on time and she communicated with me along the way. Thanks Maria!”

Sophie $14 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Sophie and I’m a senior in high school with a few years of babysitting experience, starting my freshman year caring for children of family friends and teachers. I’ve worked with a wide range of ages, from infants as young as 9 months old to teens up to 13, so I’m comfortable adapting to different needs, routines, and personalities. I’m very hands-on and love keeping kids engaged, active, and having fun!! Whether that’s playing outside, doing crafts, helping with homework, or coming up with creative activities. I always try to create a positive and safe environment where kids feel comfortable and excited to spend time together. I’m responsible, dependable, and patient, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their kids with someone they trust. I’m also good at balancing fun with structure, making sure routines, rules, and any instructions you leave are followed. Overall, I genuinely enjoy working with kids and building connections with them, and I always aim to make babysitting a fun and positive experience for everyone! Please reach out!
