Alex $25 per hour for 1 child

I truly enjoy working with children and helping them learn, grow, and explore the world around them in a safe and nurturing environment. I’m 23 years old and have six years of experience working with kids, which has helped me develop strong patience, creativity, and communication skills. I love spending quality time with my family, and I bring that same warmth and positive energy into my caregiving. I’m also an animal lover and feel comfortable around pets, which helps create a caring and welcoming atmosphere in any home. I recently moved to Texas from California, where I worked in a toddler classroom at a Spanish immersion Montessori school. That experience strengthened my knowledge of child development and creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support learning through play.

Renata $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Renata, and I’m a sophomore at UTSA. I recently started babysitting about a month ago and have absolutely loved it. I enjoy spending time with kids, making them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while creating a fun and positive environment. I’d describe myself as responsible, patient, reliable, and fun. I’m the oldest of three siblings, CPR certified, and fluent in both English and Spanish. I’m also happy to help with homework, light housekeeping, meal preparation, or anything else that helps make life a little easier for parents. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, baking, and playing padel. I have excellent time-management skills, always bring a positive attitude, and strive to provide dependable care so parents can feel confident their children are in good hands.
