Booked by 1 family in Ponder, TX

Howdy! My name is Ava and I am a grad student at UNT. I earned my bachelors degree in psychology from Texas A&M, and before I started my masters program, I spent 8 months nannying for a family with four kids ranging from 4 months to 9 years old. I truly believe in creating a positive space for children to feel safe and cared for. I love hearing kids silly stories and playing pretend games with them. I have a passion for helping children learn and grow. I was a dance teacher for 4 years and I have 9 years of babysitting experience overall, with kids ranging from infants to 15 years old. I am happy to help with homework or any other task you would like your child to accomplish. I am CPR and First Aid certified for infants, children, and adults. I am excited to meet you and your family and I look forward to working with you and your children!

“We met up for coffee for an interview, and she was punctual and professional. She asked great, relevant questions that told us she was taking it seriously. We're excited to have her take care of our girls.”

Hello! My name is Asia and I’ve been in the childcare industry for about 6 years! I’m currently a Speech-pathology major and special education minor at University of North Texas. I have a love of learning and teaching all ages of children. I have worked heavily with infants as well in daycare, churches, and home settings. I worked as a traveling Jovie nanny for almost 2 years and have lately been looking to work independently! I take care of 2 senior pups and a bunny, so pet care is no problem for me. Some of my hobbies are dance, video games, art, and music! I hope I can be a great match for your family!

Hello, my name is Evelynn and im currently a freshman in college! I have 5 other siblings, 4 nieces and nephews, and have had many pets of my own! I’ve grown up around children and have experience caring for younger ones. I helped watch and care for my baby brother for 10+ years now. I’ve also babysat my nephew and niece countless of times, from ages 0-4. I can confidently say that I am patient when dealing with kids. I love to interact and play along with their games while also ensuring safety and security. No matter the age , I engage and make sure to create a comfortable space for whoever I’m watching. As for pets, I’ve had dogs, cats, birds , turtles, and a hamster! I love animals and would love to watch/play with them. I do not have too much experience with senior care but am willing to gain! As for everything else , I have reliable transportation, am willing to pick up children if needed, can do house chores, and would love to build lasting connections with your family!
