Hannah $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Hannah, and I’ve lived in the Meyerland area of Houston, Texas, my entire life. I have over 5-10 years of experience working with children in many different settings, including as a teacher’s assistant, in infant and toddler daycares, preschools, and with elementary school-aged kids. I’ve also worked as a camp counselor at a 24-hour sleepaway camp, where I gained experience in creating fun and safe environments for kids of all ages. I have also had the privilege of working with children with autism and ADHD, helping them feel supported and understood while fostering their growth and confidence. Currently, I’m on the path to a career in the legal field, but I’d love to babysit part-time because I genuinely enjoy caring for children. Building connections, encouraging creativity, and providing a nurturing environment is something I’m truly passionate about. I’d be so excited to bring my experience and love for childcare to your family!

Her years of teaching experience really show in the way she interacts with our children. She is wonderful at handling my kids. What I appreciate most is how she encourages discipline and independence in such a positive and nurturing way.
