A little bit about me

I am 57 years old. I love doing crafts, playing games, reading, cooking and a little TV binge watching. I love ministering to children and adults alike. I am not a professional babysitter in that it is not my living. I have spent much time looking after friends and families children and also through previous churches and mission trips. I have cared for children in lots of settings and countries and love their uniqueness and individuality. I am able to care for the smallest child, special needs or adults needing care. I am quick on my feet, creative and patient. I like to be hands on and often bring my own books and crafts to entertain. It’s important for me to get to know your child’s likes and dislikes and I have a good ear for hearing what they are really trying to say. I want to add some joy in their lives and bring a happy memory to them from our time together. My hours are flexible since I am retired. I do not have a car. I am also happy to do any light cooking and house cleaning.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My experience with special needs children...

A child on the Spectrum, ADD, ADHD and OCD. I also do especially well with children who suffer mental health issues.

The most important part about being a nanny...

We decided to have a water balloon fight. We were filling up the balloons from the outside hose. It was a hot night and the water felt great. Once the balloon fight started there was so much laughing and giggling going on. I seemed to be the main one being pegged with balloons and getting wet which made them laugh harder. It was a wonderful way to have fun, be outside and get some energy released before heading back in.😬

Rachel R. - Seeking Work in Richardson

Babysitter Available in Richardson, TX: Rachel R.

Aloha! My name is Rachel 🤗
I was raised in Hawaii with 10 brothers and sisters. Ohana is everything in our culture which is what led me down this path and ultimately became a dream to provide care to our children or Keiki.
At a very young age, I developed a passion and art for child care. My mother was a babysitter and also my teacher. That being said, I have about 25 years of experience considering my upbringing (lol). Also, to note, I hold a CPR certification through Red Cross.
I also have 5 children of my own and completely understand the hardship of trusting a non-relative to care for your loved one(s). With my experience on both sides of the spectrum, I can say with confidence that your child(ren) will have the best time under my care!
I love interacting with the kiddos through hands-on activities. Art is an amazing tool to stimulate creativity, fine motor skills, cognitive development, and many more! Best of all, it's fun and they love it!
I look forward to meeting you!
