Maria $22 per hour for 1 child

About Me Hi! My name is Maria, and I’m a former Firefighter/EMT and U.S. Marine veteran offering dependable childcare, newborn care, pet care, and household support. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and children. Before joining the military, I worked as a nanny for a family in Westlake, Austin from 2[removed], caring for their four children and helping with their daily routines and needs. I also grew up helping my mom, who worked as a housekeeper, care for a child from about 1 year old through age 8. Along with childcare, I helped with laundry, making beds, cleaning, and keeping the home organized. More recently, I helped my cousin and her husband during the first three weeks of their newborn’s life. I was there to support them with their baby during those early weeks, and I continue to occasionally babysit for their family. This has given me current hands-on experience with newborn care. I’m also comfortable helping with household tasks such as laundry, changing linens, making beds, cleaning, organizing, bathing children, and preparing simple meals. I currently provide pet-sitting services through Wag and Rover, so I’m comfortable caring for pets and helping families with their furry members too. My experience as a Firefighter/EMT has taught me to be responsible, observant, calm under pressure, and prepared for the unexpected. I take safety seriously and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust with their children and home. Most importantly, I want to help take some of the load off parents’ shoulders. Whether that means watching the kids, helping around the house, caring for pets, or simply giving parents a little time to breathe, relax, and take care of themselves, I’m happy to help make life a little easier.

Geanny $14 per hour for 1 child

Hello!- My name is Geanny. I’m currently a student at TSTC. I am offering pet care, senior care, household, and child care services. I love caring for people, and have cared for my 3 pets since I was 14. I also help care for my grandparents who are fully dependent on my parents and I. I have around 6 nieces and nephews I’ve grown up watching and transporting around, and had always enjoyed being as interactive as I can be with them. I can also work as a household assistant and am great at deep cleaning, running errands, and cooking when necessary! I am happy to work with families and individuals of all backgrounds, and hope to showcase my dependability and skills!

Booked by 1 family in Riesel, TX

Hi! My name is Meagan, and I’m a fun, responsible 24-year-old who works at a local restaurant. I genuinely enjoy taking care of kids and creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment for them. I have four younger siblings whom I’ve helped care for over the years, so I’m very comfortable with children of different ages. I also have lots of friends who trust me with their kids and have always had great experiences. I’m patient, dependable, and love making sure kids feel happy, cared for, and entertained while their parents are away.

“The kid LOVED her time w Meagan!”
