Kemora Houston
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Keke! Im in college majoring in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Information technology.I have hands-on experience working as a teacher at The Learning Experience, where I cared for children in a classroom setting, supported learning activities, and maintained a safe environment. I also have years of babysitting experience with children of different ages and was in the position of a nanny . I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy caring for children and being part of their growth and daily routines. Watching kids learn, feel safe, and have fun brings me a lot of joy. I also enjoy building trusting relationships with both children and parents and knowing I'm making a positive difference.

Alex Houston
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Alex, and I am an English teacher looking for some extra summer work. I have been babysitting children for families off and on since 2008. My experience includes the following long-term clients: - A family with a school-aged brother and sister - A family with two twin boys in middle school - A family with four boys ranging in age from 2-10 I have also babysat infants for families on occasion. I am very energetic, enthusiastic, and enjoy many interests and activities that are engaging for children, including: recreational sports, storytelling, arts, playing music, learning and teaching new games (especially board games and card games), as well as playing with building and skill toys. Also, thanks to my background as a teacher, I enjoy teaching and tutoring. I started as a babysitter in high school. I realized that I enjoyed working with and caring for children when my little brother was born when I was 15 years old. In 2008, I volunteered for the High School Big Brother Big Sister, where I won the "Best High School Big Brother" in Houston award. I am also a cat owner and grew up caring for both cats can dogs. For household services, I can clean, do laundry, vacuum, and wash dishes. I am proactive when it comes to tidying and cleaning up messes. Just show me where the cleaning supplies are! Thank you for considering me. *At the moment, I do not have a car and rely on ride-sharing services or the Metro, so I am currently looking for babysitting opportunities in the Montrose/Medical Center/Rice Village Area **references can be provided upon request

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."

Eric D., dad of two
