London $28 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m London, a neuroscience major and student-athlete who has always loved working with children and hopes to continue doing so in the future. I have been babysitting for 6 years and have experience caring for children of different ages, including children with special needs. Being a student-athlete has taught me the importance of responsibility, patience, communication, and time management. I love creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves while also encouraging their curiosity and growth. This summer, I had the opportunity to work as a camp counselor with children ages 4–12, where I planned activities, built relationships with campers, and helped create a positive experience for every child. I absolutely loved getting to be a part of their days and watching their personalities shine. I’m passionate about making kids feel valued, supported, and excited to learn and play. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted caregiver for your family!

I enjoy keeping kids engaged through play, activities, reading, and outdoor time. I’m also fluent in English, French, and Spanish, so I’d be happy to speak any of these languages with your child.

Hi! I’m a college junior (Texas Christian University, Neeley School of Business) currently home for the summer working part-time at a law office. I’m available several afternoons, and most evenings and weekends—and I’d love to help with babysitting, tutoring, pet sitting, dog walking, or running errands. I’m a reliable, nurturing, and outgoing person who truly enjoys spending time with kids and animals. I have strong communication skills and take pride in being someone families can count on. I’m very active and love being outdoors, whether that means playing games with kids, going on walks, or keeping pets engaged and happy. I have a car so I’m flexible and dependable when it comes to getting where I need to be. I have 6 years of experience and am happy to provide references upon request. Looking forward to connecting soon!
