Hi! My name is Leilah and I'm a recent graduate of SMU. I am almost a Certified Medical Assistant with hopes to apply to nursing school soon! I have all the first aid training needed as well as CPR due to my degree in Anatomy and Physiology. I have been babysitting and nannying since my freshman year of college with ages ranging from 3 months to 15 year olds. I care tremendously about making sure the family I work with is satisfied and comfortable with my work. I am a very caring, loving, and a kindhearted person. I absolutely love taking care of children and would love to lend a helping hand wherever I can!
Hi! My name is Anika, I'm a senior in college and a full-time student-athlete with six years of childcare experience, caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. I'm responsible, dependable, patient, and passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel comfortable. I understand the importance of finding someone you can trust with your little ones, and I strive to provide parents with peace of mind while making sure their children feel happy, supported, and cared for. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become a positive part of your children's lives!
I’ve always been surrounded by kids and genuinely love spending time with them! I have 11 years of experience helping a family with three girls and two boys, 2 years of experience watching up to eight children while their parents played tennis, and 3 years of experience caring for a family with four boys. I also come from a big family with lots of cousins, so being around children has always been a natural part of my life. More recently, I’ve enjoyed helping care for my 7-month-old nephew. Through these experiences, I’ve become comfortable caring for children of different ages, managing multiple kids at once, and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment. Babysitting has always been something I genuinely enjoy!
I have 3 years of babysitting experience and have always loved creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment for kids. Most recently, I've worked at The Little Gym for over a year and a half, where I've helped children ages 1-12 build confidence, learn new skills, and have fun through movement and play. In high school, I also spent 2 years in Crossage P.E., where I traveled to a local elementary school to teach P.E. to 1st and 2nd graders. As a first-year college student, I bring a lot of energy, patience, and responsibility to care giving. I'm very protective, dependable, and genuinely enjoy connecting with children of all ages. Whether it's helping with homework, playing games, keeping routines on track, or simply being a positive role model, I love being someone kids feel safe and excited to be around. In addition to childcare, I'm also very comfortable caring for animals. I've grown up around fish, large and small dogs, cats, reptiles, and even insects, so I'm confident working with a wide variety of pets. During my previous babysitting jobs, I regularly helped with household chores and cleaning, and I also prepared meals for the families I worked with. I'm always willing to help around the house however I can. I also have my own car and a valid driver's license, which allows me to commute reliably and provide transportation if needed.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
