My name is Ashley and I am offering child care. I have been caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 18 years old. I worked as a babysitter during my college years, then cared for my own children and am currently an elementary teacher. I’m more than happy to also care for your pets.

“Amazing - on time and gave us an overview of his night. She’s great.”

Booked by 6 families in Waller, TX

As a certified child care specialist I bring decades of teaching and caring experiences to the table. My goal, as a caregiver is to ensure that your child is safe and well cared for. I currently work at a local child care center and this is one way to share my experience and skill with my community. I am friendly, easy going but thorough and firm. In my less busy moments, I love to cook, and style/raid hair. Families that I have worked with love me and I am sure you would too.

“She is exactly what I was looking for in a caregiver! Experienced, knowledgeable, patient, engaging, and trustworthy.”

Booked by 1 family in Waller, TX

I’m a devoted mother of four and grandmother of four, happiest when I’m surrounded by family — especially my grandkids. As a certified chef from the Art Institute of Houston, I love bringing creativity to the kitchen and sharing good food with the people I love. Outside of cooking, gardening is my peaceful escape, where I enjoy planting, growing, and connecting with nature.

“Ivalyn was wonderful, amazing sitter i would highly recommend”

Iyonna $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Iyonna and I love working with kids! I’m graduating in May and looking to work for money to go towards college. I have worked with kids frequently in the past 2 years when volunteering and with family. I’m most used to working with kids 4 and up, but I’m open to younger. I have a Yorki and I primarily care for him so I’m comfortable with animals. I am also comfortable with household tasks as my parent works a lot so I routinely take care of tasks around the house.
