I moved to Austin in 2019 from the Northeast. Prior to my relocation, I was a teacher (two/three year olds) at a Private Preschool in New Jersey for more than 13 years. I am a certified infant/toddler teacher and have also taught English as a Second Language in a public elementary school system. Additionally, I have worked for many years as a reading/writing tutor and a teacher of theatre arts to elementary and middle school students. I have numerous years of experience working with children, ages newborn to late teens. In addition, I have raised three children (two grown, one teenaged). I am well versed in developmental milestones and my specific area of expertise is working with children who have different learning capabilities, notably children on the spectrum and/or with developmental delays. I continue to work in Austin as a preschool teacher and tutor for elementary school children. In addition, I run neurodiversity consulting programs and staff development sessions for local private schools. Because of my career in teaching, I am required to renew my certification in CPR and First Aid every two years and I annually accrue 40 plus hours of developmental/industry standards training. I am fully vaccinated (including all COVID vaccines.) I adore engaging with children, am trustworthy, dependable and timely. I am looking forward to meeting you and your children!

“Kristin was really great with our kids! Warm and competent, her childcare experience and professionalism is really evident. ”

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
