Ava $17 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Ava Marie. I’ll be attending UTA in the fall. I have worked in the service industry, and I’m transitioning into childcare because I love teaching kids to be creative and free in spirit! When it comes to my experience, I have helped raise my younger twin sisters my entire life. I love being playful, spending time outdoors, and being active! I am naturally a silly person that loves being around children because they are youthful and easy to inspire! I am a phenomenal role model for kids to look up to! I would love to work as a teacher in Spain or in Costa Rica! I admire the gentle parenting approach, and would love to gain some insightful parenting skills from working in different family dynamics. I am currently looking for part time work, and have flexible availability. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Booked by 10 families in River Oaks, TX

I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old. I’ve worked with all ages from infants and up. I was a preschool teacher for awhile and I also have experience working with special education. Ive nannied for a 4 year old boy, a family with 4 kids (ages 10, 8, 5, 6 months) and occasionally for a family with 11, 9 and 3 year olds. I have my own car so I don’t mind transporting or running errands as needed. I’m CPR/BLS certified, almost medical assistant certified, a non smoker, I like to cook, and don’t mind light janitorial and household duties. I Can speak intermediate Spanish. I know enough to be able to teach someone else how to speak it and I would love to learn more together as well. I am based in Texas but I travel to California every so often to visit family.

Hey, I’m Carri! I’m born and raised in Fort Worth, TX. I’m currently a student and I work full-time as an RBT (registered behavior technician). I am pursuing my masters degree in special education with a focus of ABA. I’m currently offering childcare and pet/house sitting duties. I have plenty of experience with all ages as I am the oldest of 6 and I’ve been working professionally in childcare for about 3 years now. I have great knowledge of child development and I’m trained in safety care and CPR certified. I am fully equipped to bring fun and exciting energy with your children! I’m also greatly experienced with pets as I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life! I have lots of experience with housesitting, pet sitting, and child care.

Booked by 33 families in River Oaks, TX

My name is Leila! I am a recent graduate of the UNT MBA in Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management. I also graduated from UT Arlington with a BA in Communication Studies, specializing in the organizational communication track. I am currently in the job market for another Human Resources position, so I am temporarily available for occasional babysitting roles and tutoring opportunities. In college, I was an avid volunteer across DFW with experience volunteering internationally and I love working with children. I was a nanny throughout college and loved my nanny families so so much. I've been a camp counselor, a band coach, and a committed volunteer through the service cohort of my leadership society at school. I have created long lasting bonds with my employers and have consistently created environments in my workplace that are inclusive, loving, and positive. Among my various volunteer experiences, a highlight I've had is working as a supplemental English teacher in the beautiful community of Jiquilillo, in Chinandega, Nicaragua, with GIVE Volunteers and Nicaraguan students. In all of my work with children, I teach critical values to encourage positive mindset, creative thinking, and the exploration of new ideas. Those values are imperative for the youth of today and the global citizens of tomorrow. I have a very holistic approach to parenting! Reach out to me via private message for interview scheduling. I don't accept bookings without initial contact from the guardians. Open to occasional roles at this time. ***Please let me know if you have sick children prior to booking!*** Updated: 10/29/2026

“Leila did a fantastic job watching our little one (2 months) - very active with him, professional, and great communication.”
