I have been babysitting since I was a freshman in high school. I have six years paid nannying experience, and I am a certified teacher in Houston, Tx. I have experience caring for children ages infancy through teenage years. I understand the importance of making every child feel safe during a parents absence. I can assure any parent that I will provide a safe, loving, and nurturing environment for all children. I come with a CPR and First Aide certification. I also have an extensive background for caring for children with special needs (epilepsy, autism, food allergies etc. ).
Trust & safety
We encourage parents to conduct their own screenings using the background check tools. See what each of the badges covered, or learn more about keeping your family safe by visiting the Trust & Safety Center.
