Lissette $24 per hour for 1 child

Hi family’s! I’m Lissy I’m a very loving, upbeat, and patient caregiver with 5 years of experience caring for children ages 1–12, including working in a Sunday church daycare. I genuinely love spending time with kids and creating a safe, happy, and fun environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy staying active, playing outside, and helping with daily routines. I’m also a huge animal lover with 5 dogs and a cat, so pets are always a joy for me! I’m currently in school for phlebotomy, which has helped me become even more responsible, attentive, and compassionate. I would be so excited to support your family and care for your little ones like my own!

Booked by 1 family in Elgin, TX

I am a mom of two, Ava (10) and Andrew (17) and one Corgie/Chihuahua named Chloe. I was a stay at home mom for both my kids and continue to work a schedule so that I can pick up my daughter from school. I recently started helping take care of my friend's baby who just turned one and loved every minute of it. I grew up nannying for my younger cousins in the summers (three girls) and it was extremely fulfilling. I have a BS from the University of Texas at Austin in Communiation and am a certified Personal Trainer. I also do home organization and pet care because I can't sit still for long. I love all breeds of dogs and so do my children!

Hi! I’m Vida— a reliable, calm, and kind-hearted caregiver with a natural love for children and animals. I’ve spent my life caring for dogs and being the trusted “go-to” person for friends and family when they need dependable help. I’m patient, attentive, and very safety-focused. I love creating a calm, positive environment where kids feel comfortable, heard, and supported. Whether that means helping with homework, playtime, bedtime routines, or simply being a steady presence, I take responsibility seriously and treat every child and home with care and respect. I’m punctual, communicative, and always happy to follow family routines and preferences. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and give you peace of mind while you’re away!

Booked by 1 family in Elgin, TX

I am new to Texas and am hoping to find a family looking for a nanny with a genuine passion for caring for children and creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment. I have 10+ years of experience working with kids of all ages and abilities. I am a family support specialist with an education in Human Development and Psychology, certificates such as First Aid, CPR, Human Services, etc. I understand and implement the importance of supporting each child’s growth in learning, communication, regulating emotions, building confidence, and developing independence. With this knowledge, I use play very intentionally. I tailor play to each child’s age, mood, energy level, and developmental stage, thoughtfully choosing activities that support their needs in the moment through regulation play, physical activity, creativity, life skill learning, independent exploration or social interaction. I am patient, dependable, and attentive, building trust with both children and parents through reliability and open communication. I know family life can be busy, and sometimes having an extra person around makes all the difference. My goal is to bring a calm, helpful presence into the home so children feel cared for and parents feel supported. Whether helping with daily routines, household tasks, or play time, I am dedicated to providing care that gives families peace of mind.

"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."
