Hello! I am Kierra, I am currently a sophomore at Sam Houston, studying psychology with a minor in applied behavioral analysis. I plan to one day become a child psychologist specializing in childhood trauma. I am the eldest daughter with 3 younger siblings, as well as over 20 cousins, so I have plenty of experience with childcare. I currently work at a hospital as a phlebotomist so I have first aid experience, as well as experience with seniors. I have no problem with cooking, cleaning, helping with homework, working through hard emotions, and having plenty of fun! I have 2 cats, and I helped dog sit through out high-school!
From a young age, I discovered a passion for nurturing children while babysitting. Supporting families by providing reliable childcare is incredibly fulfilling. My calm and patient nature allows me to connect with kids, while my creative side shines through during playtime. I enjoy outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities that make learning fun. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children of all ages. I have some college experience and can assist with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, crafts, and swimming supervision. I am also certified in CPR and First Aid. I provide regular updates via text or phone call, always following your preferred communication style. Enforcing household rules is something I take seriously. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my energy and dedication to your family!
A dedicated and adaptable college student with a passion for providing reliable care. I offer a range of services, including child and senior care, pet sitting, and household assistance. My flexible schedule allows me to plan engaging activities for children, provide compassionate companionship for seniors, ensure the well-being of pets, and maintain a clean and organized home. I am dependable, responsible, and committed to creating a safe and positive environment for everyone I work with.
Hi everyone! šš¾ I offer caregiving services for children, seniors, pets, and household services. With over 9 years of caregiving experience, Iāve developed a deep passion for supporting others and tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual or pet in my care. Iāve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to older kids, and Iām actively involved in the lives of my nieces and nephews (ages 3-10 ). One of my most cherished memories is helping care for my premature twin niece and nephew. I love tailoring my care to match the personalities of the children I work with, whether itās engaging in gaming sessions or hosting fun dance parties. Ensuring a safe, nurturing environment is always my priority. I create fun and educational experiences that cater to each childās interests. I believe in engaging kids with screen-free activities think arts and crafts, outdoor play, and fun science experiments! I absolutely love watching their favorite movies & tv shows with them also. For seniors, I offer companionship and assist with daily tasks like meal prep, showering, and dressing. I started my caregiving journey by caring for an elderly family friend, which instilled in me the values of patience, empathy, and attentiveness. I aim to create positive interactions that enrich their lives, whether through meaningful conversations or favorite activities. Iām also passionate about pets, offering services such as walking, feeding, and playtime. I treat pets like family, ensuring they feel loved and secure while their owners are away. Iām outgoing, detail-oriented, and value clear communication. My faith guides me to approach caregiving with joy, peace, and purpose. I also offer household services like cleaning and organizing, and Iām CPR-certified with a valid driverās license. Iām available for both full-time and part-time work, including evenings and weekends. Iām available for flexible scheduling, including last-minute requests. I am happy to be here! If you have any questions please donāt hesitate to reach out. Iām more than happy to talk on the phone also. Looking forward to the opportunity to connect and help out! I look forward to creating joyful, meaningful and memorable experiences with your family!
Hi my name is Emily Moore (no longer Poblano, as I am married now), Iām 25 years old and Iāve been babysitting/ petsitting for 8 years now. Iām the oldest of 4 kids so Iāve got lots of experience with all ages. I was a 1st grade teacher to 5 kids during my junior year of high school and loved planning activities for the kids. I love to sing, dance, swim, go to the park, and explore new things. I am CERT certified, bilingual(English/Spanish), and Iāve always had so much patience with kids of any age. Iām also very good with pets of all kinds, I have 1 dog myself (lab mix). I also do have a car, Iām an amazing cook, and I can always help out with any housework needed. Im also very flexible with my time. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to message me. I am willing to drive to further locations, but I do charge $10/20 miles as a gas fee (less than 20 miles is no extra charge) IF YOUR CHILD IS SICK WITH A COLD/FLU/COVID/COUGH AND YOU DO NOT INFORM ME BEFORE HAND, I WILL HAVE TO CHARGE $100 FOR THE INCONVENIENCE/ NON PREVENTATIVE ACTION TAKEN. Thank you have a blessed day:)
