Hello, my name is Laila ! I’m a 2023 graduate who’s always been the oldest in my family , and as the oldest I’ve developed the love for working with kids over time. I can say that I’ve been babysittingfor about 6-7 years, professionally 3. I truly do love being around kids, this would be my second summer being a Camp Counselor for kindergarten. I love that I was able to connect with the kids in my classroom and build up that sense of trust not just with them but their parents. Being a counselor and KidCare attendant has taught me a lot by being patient with the child, helping to communicate, and most importantly to have fun. I’ve worked with a variety of ages from 6 months to 12 year olds but have the most experience with 4-5 year olds. I love to be creative and create a safe environment whenever I’m watching kids. Hopefully you’ll take interest in me and hope to see you soon !

I started working with kids as a job my freshman year as a youth camp counselor and I worked there for 4 years. I have also worked at the YMCA in Alvin,Tx, as a after school care counselor.this job had me working with kids in schools all over the Alvin, rosharon, Dickinson, and pearland areas.

I was also a nanny for a wonderful family from here for almost a year. Unfortunately I did have a better opportunity approach me which cause my resignation. Kids have always had a special place in my heart. They are fun to work with and to be around. I am currently employed at a dealership in league city but I am in need of a second job and I remembered how much fun and great memories I had with the previous family I worked for so I decided to get back in the babysitter/nanny game for my second job. I am also enrolled through work in an online college working on my associates degree in business. I also graduated high school as salutatorian, and i was in the honors society. I am available every week day from 2:30pm-9pm and every other Saturday all day and all day Sundays.I would love to have the opportunity to bond and create memories with your family and kids.

I’m currently finishing up my last semester at UH (go coogs)!I would say my passion for children began when I was a child myself, my mom had a licensed child care home. She did this until I graduated high school and now she works for PCCPA.I actually got my CPR certificate from them, I speak Spanish and English and I always have fun activities to keep your child entertained instead of sitting in front of the TV.
