A little bit about me

Hello future employers,
My name is Emerald Barnes, and I am a 21-year-old college student with a passion for teaching and caring for children of all ages. I am currently in my third year at the University of Houston–Downtown, where I am pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Education with a focus on both General and Special Education. I attend classes once a week on Wednesdays while gaining hands-on experience in the field.
At present, I work as a paraprofessional in a Pre-K special education classroom, where I support young learners with diverse needs. This role has strengthened my patience, creativity, and ability to build meaningful connections with children.
Outside of work and school, I enjoy spending time outdoors, reading, crocheting, and doing puzzles. I am also happily engaged and planning to get married next June.
I am interested in becoming a sitter to continue gaining experience, support families, and build strong relationships with children in a nurturing environment.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Yes, I am currently a teacher and served as an infant teacher at a District Daycare for 2 years .

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Activities I enjoy doing with children are arts and crafts, making learning fun by implementing real like experiences such as counting money at a play register, matching colors with food or even outside/indoor items.
I even like for them to teach me for a day to see how they learn for themselves, so I can get a grasp of what they need more help on with their educational learning.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters to me about being a nanny is following the parent’s instructions and giving the best care possible to their children. Making sure they are supervised and supported by me. I also encourage them to be aware of their surroundings to avoid medical concerns and outside sources such as unknown individuals and social media.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children has included working this autism, verbal and non verbal communication. I have experience is tube feeding and physical activity’s for their fine and gross motor skills .

The most important part about being a nanny...

A memorable moment for me when teaching is letting the children control the day surrounded by learning and real like experiences. I even let them express what they feel they need extra help in even if it’s outside of educational opportunities and to make a fun Friday to give them a brain break.

LaToya T. - Seeking Work in Houston

Babysitter Available in Houston, TX: LaToya T.

I am a 41-year-old single mother currently navigating a season of transition, including going through a divorce, while remaining deeply committed to both my personal growth and professional purpose. As an educator, I made the intentional decision to step away from the classroom this school year not only to pursue my doctorate in Educational Leadership, but also to be more present in my children’s daily lives during this critical time.

This season has allowed me to fully invest in my role as a mother by actively engaging in my children’s school experiences and supporting them.

My passion has always centered on children their growth, their confidence, and their overall well-being. I believe that education extends far beyond academics; it is about nurturing the whole child and creating environments where students feel safe, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential. Both as an educator and as a mother, I am deeply committed to fostering meaningful relationships.
