Hi! I'm Gniyah and I've been working with children of all ages - from tiny newborns to energetic teens - for over five years. I truly love what l do. Helping kids grow, learn, and feel safe and supported is something I'm passionate about. My approach is a balance of structure and freedom. I believe kids thrive when they know what's expected of them, but also when they're given space to explore, ask questions, and follow their curiosity. I enjoy getting outside with the kids, whether we're going for a walk, playing in the yard, or turning a simple outing into a learning adventure. Some things | can help with: * Newborn care * Potty training * Meal prep/snacks * Homework help * Outdoor play and learning activities I'm based in Houston and speak English. Families I've worked with describe me as dependable, calm, and patient, but also someone who knows how to keep kids engaged!
Hello! I am Kierra, I am currently a sophomore at Sam Houston, studying psychology with a minor in applied behavioral analysis. I plan to one day become a child psychologist specializing in childhood trauma. I am the eldest daughter with 3 younger siblings, as well as over 20 cousins, so I have plenty of experience with childcare. I currently work at a hospital as a phlebotomist so I have first aid experience, as well as experience with seniors. I have no problem with cooking, cleaning, helping with homework, working through hard emotions, and having plenty of fun! I have 2 cats, and I helped dog sit through out high-school!
I’m a caring and patient caregiver with strong qualifications and a warm personality. I’m great at understanding and supporting kids and pets, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy. My talents include creating fun, nurturing environments and handling responsibilities with kindness and reliability.
A dedicated and adaptable college student with a passion for providing reliable care. I offer a range of services, including child and senior care, pet sitting, and household assistance. My flexible schedule allows me to plan engaging activities for children, provide compassionate companionship for seniors, ensure the well-being of pets, and maintain a clean and organized home. I am dependable, responsible, and committed to creating a safe and positive environment for everyone I work with.
From a young age, I discovered a passion for nurturing children while babysitting. Supporting families by providing reliable childcare is incredibly fulfilling. My calm and patient nature allows me to connect with kids, while my creative side shines through during playtime. I enjoy outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities that make learning fun. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children of all ages. I have some college experience and can assist with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, crafts, and swimming supervision. I am also certified in CPR and First Aid. I provide regular updates via text or phone call, always following your preferred communication style. Enforcing household rules is something I take seriously. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my energy and dedication to your family!
