Morgan 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Dripping Springs, TX

Hi! My names Morgan and I’m a 24-year-old caregiver with a genuine passion for working with children. I was a nanny for four years, which gave me experience caring for children of different ages and taught me how to be patient, responsible, dependable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I currently work as an assistant teacher at an academy school with children ages 18–24 months, but I have experience caring for children of all ages. I’m comfortable with infants, toddlers, and older children, and I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, caring, reliable, and very attentive. I’m comfortable helping with meals, diaper changes, nap and bedtime routines, activities, homework, and keeping children engaged throughout the day. I am CPR/First Aid certified I truly love working with kids and would love the opportunity to be a trusted caregiver for your family!

“She is amazing! Attentive, caring, invested, knowledgeable, flexible, patient, and my kid absolutely loves her. She is like my kids second mom/aunt. She is closer to my kid than any other family member. We appreciate all the love the attention and the teaching she does for my child as well. My child calls for her. It’s bedtime. That’s just how much of an extension of the family she is.”

Booked by 2 families in Dripping Springs, TX

Hi! My name is Bailey! I am a recent graduate from the University of Tennessee and I’m so excited to start my new job as a pediatric ICU nurse at Dell Children’s Hospital. While in college I spent a year working in the Neonatal ICU, which made me fall in love with caring for infants and children of all ages. My background in nursing has given me tons of hands-on experience, and I’m certified in CPR and first aid, so you can always count on me to keep your little ones safe. I’m great at coming up with fun, age-appropriate activities and believe in the magic of interactive play. I just moved to Austin and am looking for part-time babysitting jobs. I adore kids and would love to share my skills and care with your family. Plus, I love all pets and can dog sit too!

Hi, I’m Olga, go by Camila, 27. Born in Mexico then raised in Texas. I am the youngest of 4 and my older siblings started having kids when I was 12 yrs old, so I’ve been on babysitting duties since then. I have 5 nephews and 2 nieces.

I am currently in the job market and have started picking up babysitting shifts in NYC in the meantime. I’m a natural at taking care of kids, I understand their needs, but most importantly how parents want me to care for their little ones. I’m great with bed time routines, naps, activities, etc. I also help out with household needs, cooking, cleaning, errands, etc. I’m also great at maintaining a clean space. Jack of all trades, really whatever you need help with I can jump right in! I’d love to connect and help out! 😊

“Olga is such a natural caregiver. She is so good at making up fun activities for my kids. They love spending time with her! Every time she watches them they are come back exhausted but full of joy. I highly highly recommend Olga for all your child care needs. So grateful to have someone as reliable and natural as her! ”
