A little bit about me

Hello and welcome. My name is Austin but most people call me "Tree" on account of my large stature. I would love the privilege of being a "manny" to your child.

Male role models are sometimes difficult to come by during childhood and I would like to offer my services like other men in my life helped me develop into who I am today.

I works best with children over 9 years old but I am willing to work with younger kids if we feel like it would be a good fit.

Hermella T. - Seeking Work in Dallas

7 years experience

A little bit about me

My name is Hermella, I am 26 years old and I’ve been caring for children in my community since high school. I started as a volunteer, then moved into paid summer positions supporting kids of different ages and personalities, and I continued babysitting consistently throughout college. I earned my bachelor’s degree with a focus on Human Development and Family Science, a master’s degree in Crisis Management, and I am currently pursuing my MBA through Baylor University.
In addition to childcare, I’ve served as a Program Director at a senior living community in memory care, where I designed all the activity programs and personally led crafts classes, simple history lessons, and a variety of engaging sessions to keep residents mentally and socially active. That made my ability to plan age‑appropriate activities, manage group routines, and keep people engaged with patience and creativity—all of which directly translate into fun, structured, and developmentally supportive care for children.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Diana, I’m 19 years old and currently studying criminology at El Centro. I’ve always had a strong love for working with kids, and caring for them has been a big part of my life. I helped raise my little sister and have taken care of my younger cousins from when they were babies all the way into their teenage years, which has given me a lot of patience, responsibility, and experience with different age groups.

I truly enjoy spending time with children whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, or just making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I’m someone who is caring, dependable, and attentive, and I always do my best to create a positive and fun environment for the kids I’m with.

I understand how important it is for parents to trust the person caring for their children, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I would love the opportunity to support your family and be someone you can rely on. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me!
