Ariel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Ariel and I’m currently a substitute teacher for K-12 graders. I am offering childcare and household service. I love being a babysitter! I have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, including twins since I was 14 years old. My responsibilities have been to feed, cloth, tutor and help with sports. I enjoy completing household chores on my spare time. I like to be very organized. I prefer not to cook, but I can drive to and from doctor appointments, school or etc. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs that aren’t aggressive.

Hi, I’m Keira! I’m a college student who loves working with kids and creating a fun, safe environment. I’m patient, responsible, and have lots of experience babysitting, helping with homework, and keeping kids engaged with activities. I’m also great with pets and happy to help with them too.

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!

Ava $17 per hour for 1 child

Although I currently don't have professional caregiving experience, I am a friendly and patient college-educated individual who is certified in First Aid/CPR (adult & pediatric) and is in the process of becoming a certified clinical medical assistant. I look to enjoy supporting families by providing attentive, reliable care for children between 6 months - 12 years old. I'm happy to engage your children with board games, puzzles, and educational activities if needed. I like to meet children where they're at, so if your child favors a more energizing personality, then I can do that, or if they favor a more calm persona, then I can do that as well. I will follow your lead on household rules and communicate updates using your preferred method. I am very comfortable with pets if any are present; light housekeeping and light meal preparation is something I'm willing to help with too.
