A little bit about me
I’m passionate about creating fun, safe, and enriching experiences for children of all ages. With years of experience babysitting kids from mainly 3 months to 13 years old and growing up in a big family, I’ve learned how to keep kids engaged through creative play, tailored activities, and even a little homework help when needed.
My background in child development and music allows me to introduce children to the joys of singing, dancing, and creative expression. Fluent in English and Spanish, I connect easily with families from diverse backgrounds. As a youth ministry leader, I bring patience, kindness, and a faith-driven approach to creating a nurturing environment where every child feels valued and loved.
Whether you need a regular babysitter, a few hours of focus time, or a night out, I’d love to help make your child’s day brighter. Let’s connect!

A little bit about me
I may not have any nannying expiernece however I grew up with my mom being a single parent meaning I had a very large responsibility in caring and watching my two younger siblings. I may not be a parent but I can understand your child/children are your entire world and hiring someone to watch them requires a lot of trust. I however have always had a strong passion for caring for kids as it's how I have spent most of my life. I have developed patience, on the spot thinking and creativity, and a caring and compassionate heart. I feel like truly I am still a kid at heart and love playing outside and doing arts and crafts while still adding educational value to activities.

A little bit about me
My name is Jaden and I am currently a 1st year law student at Texas A&M (online).
I am looking for a part time babysitting job! I have over 5+ years experience nannying as well as have my own mode of transportation. Along with being a student I am very involved in my community by volunteering at the Humane Society on weekends, and in my spare time I love to read and keep active! However, I can usually be pretty flexible with dates and times if need be! I pride myself in being a fun and outgoing person who believes kids learn best through play. Being a 22 year old I still have the energy of a little kid which can be beneficial when it comes to babysitting. Please reach out to me if you are interested or have any further questions!!
