Find a babysitter in Austin, TX

I’m a responsible, patient, and caring person who genuinely enjoys helping families and creating a safe, comfortable environment for children. I’m dependable, organized, and attentive, while still being fun and easygoing. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, meals, homework, playtime, and keeping things tidy around the home. I’m also good at following instructions and adjusting to each family’s preferences and routines. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident about who they’re leaving their children with, so I take communication, safety, and reliability seriously. I’d love the opportunity to support a family and make their day a little easier.

I began my 'nanny' career 25 years ago when I decided to become a massage therapist. As an artist, I knew I needed to supplement my income, but I had no idea how fulfilling it would be to share the awe and wonder of the world with children. Today I consider the responsibility of caring for someone (critters, elderly folk, children) to be a privilege. I have had the pleasure of serving 5 families throughout my nanny career. The 1st child is in law school at Stanford, and the most recent youngster is 11. (I became his nanny when he was born and the work sustained me while I finished my masters degree in Chaplaincy). I served one year as Chaplain at Seton Hospital, and another year working for Hospice Austin. My little buddy still has monthly sleepovers due to our 11 year friendship, and has become my Godson. My interests today include painting, singing, gardening, yoga, long hikes, travel, cooking healthy meals, and a daily spiritual practice to keep gratitude first and foremost in my life. I am certified in CPR, and have completed three years of American Sign Language at ACC. (certified). Volunteer work with Hospice Austin brought me to the awareness of how precious life is and the importance of practicing being mindful and present with the life of another. Little people ( and big peeps too), deserve to feel safe, be listened to and have their emotional and physical needs met. I am a non smoker, non drinker, non TV watcher. I am dependable, and honest. I do not use my phone in the presence of children, unless looking up GPS for the nearest park, or treasure hunt! How am I with little ones? I have been called 'I love Lucy' due to my sense of humor, and one mom has referred to me as a cross between 'Maria' in the Sound of Music and Mary Poppins. I enjoy sharing art projects, experiments in the kitchen, reading, making up plays, playing instruments, cooking, and lots of time outdoors exploring trees, bugs, and bike rides.

Hello, my name is Cinthia! I am currently a Ph.D. student in School Psychology at the University of Texas at Austin. I have a Masters degree in School Psychology from UT and a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology with minors in Education Studies and Applied Developmental Psychology from UCLA. I worked at a childcare center at UCLA with infants and toddlers for 3 years. I currently work at a community mental health clinic providing therapy to children, teens, and families. I also provide services as several elementary schools and community organizations around Austin. I love interacting, working and learning from children of all ages. I operate on the philosophy that children are all active agents of their own learning and a caregivers' role is to foster, scaffold, and facilitate their experiences, especially through play and fun activities.

My name is Aralyn, and I have more than 2½ years of professional caregiving and childcare experience working with children and individuals who require compassionate, attentive support. For over a year, I have worked as a Child Development Assistant while also providing babysitting services for families. My background in both childcare and direct care has strengthened my ability to create safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can thrive. I am CPR certified and trained in Safe Sleep practices and the Heimlich maneuver, and I prioritize every child's safety and well-being above all else. I enjoy planning fun, age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and confidence, whether that means reading books together, completing puzzles, making crafts, exploring the outdoors, visiting the park, or simply joining children in the activities they enjoy most. I believe every child learns differently, and I strive to build meaningful relationships by supporting their unique personalities, interests, and developmental needs. In addition to my childcare experience, I currently work as a Direct Care Partner, providing compassionate assistance to individuals with disabilities. This role has strengthened my patience, communication skills, adaptability, and attention to detail while reinforcing the importance of treating every person with kindness, dignity, and respect. These experiences have made me a dependable caregiver who remains calm under pressure and is committed to creating positive experiences for the families I serve. I am a rising senior at The University of Texas at Austin pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with a minor in African and African Diaspora Studies. My education has deepened my understanding of child development, movement, health, and wellness, and I hope to use this knowledge to continue making a positive impact on children's growth and overall well-being. Outside of work, I enjoy dancing, reading, spending time with family and friends, and staying active. I am a patient, dependable, energetic, and caring person who genuinely enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I look forward to building trusting relationships with families and providing dependable care that gives parents peace of mind while creating a positive, enriching experience for their children
