Hi! I am Alexander (Alex) and I am a very experienced pet-sitter with experience with toddlers and infant care based in the DFW area. As a father of two cats, I am extremely familiar with the care our fur-babies need especially when traveling. I also have experience with dogs, rodents, birds, and fish! As an uncle to 3 beautiful nieces and 2 wonderful nephews, I am experienced with childcare specifically for toddlers and infants as I have provided childcare for my siblings for over 5 years. I also perform household chores and enjoy cleaning! I look forward to hearing from you all.

Booked by 3 families in The Colony, TX

Hi! My name is Marianne, and I’m an experienced caregiver based in Dallas. I have worked with children of different ages through babysitting and as an au pair in the United States. I lived in Connecticut during my first year, worked in Chicago for a few months, and now I’m in Dallas, where I’ll continue working part-time with my current host family after my au pair program ends. I have a valid driver’s license and feel comfortable helping with school pickups, activities, meals, routines, playtime, and keeping children safe and happy. I love caregiving because I truly enjoy creating a warm, patient, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable, loved, and cared for. I’m responsible, caring, easygoing, and reliable. I’m also very pet friendly and comfortable being around animals. I love building good connections with the families I work with.

Zaniya $12 per hour for 1 child

Hi my name is Zaniya i’m 18 and i’m a upcoming senior class of 27. I offer childcare and also cleaning around the house! I love babysitting and have been babysitting since my 8th grade year and always loved doing it ever since I mainly watched Toddlers and kid and rarely watched infants. I also love helping out by doing stuff around the house and helping with little things, I know how to cook as-well I don’t have a drivers license yet so sadly I cannot run errands. I’m not allergic to anything but I do have sickle cell but I don’t let that get in the way. I look forward into helping parents and being someone you can rely on!

"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."

"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)."
