I have been working professionally with children for over 9 years and have babysat children between the ages of 1 month and 13 years. I have experience with date night sitting, and morning and after school pick up. Responsibilities include travel to and from after school activities, indoor and outdoor play time, meal preparation, homework help, bath time supervision and help, and bedtime supervision. Regarding infants and toddlers, there were additional responsibilities such as feeding and burping, diaper changing, and safely putting the infant to sleep. I also completed light household chores, such as putting away leftover toys and organizing play spaces, cooking, washing dishes, sweeping floors, and cleaning the kitchen and dining area. I have overseen children during play dates and birthday parties, and am comfortable with babysitting multiple children at once. I always recognize the importance of keeping children mentally and physically challenged. I believe that I have the awareness to teach children how to fix and learn from their mistakes in a way that they will understand while maintaining an environment that is fun and safe. Distance is no problem for me, since I have a driver’s license and a car, and I am willing to add a child car seat to travel with children. I love working with pets, and have professionally walked and cared for dogs for over 4 years and cats for over 11 years. I have cared for dogs and cats for both short term (1-2 days) and long term (7+ days) periods, and can care for your pets while babysitting if needed, as well as when you are away from home. I am available for last minute gigs and am flexible working longer hours or morning/weekend hours. Babysitting is a difficult yet rewarding line of work. It requires a unique kind of problem solving that allows me to interact with children in the way my babysitters interacted with me. I believe that I am the living example of the quote "It takes a village to raise a child". To me, there’s nothing more unifying and empowering than that-- participating in the ‘village’ of individuals to help promote the growth of a child. As I learn more about myself and follow my dreams, I am always delighted for the opportunity to push children to follow theirs.
“Keyanna is great! She’s very professional and even kept us updated on our baby while we were out. We’ll definitely hire her again!”
Hello! My name is Cecilia, but my students affectionately call me Coach. :) During my college years, I worked as an urban sitter. After earning my teaching degree, I’ve returned to assist families in need of childcare. Before becoming a certified P.E. teacher, I nannied for a family and have since become their date night sitter. I’m excited about the opportunity to connect with more families in Austin and share my knowledge and experience with them. In my free time, I enjoy weight training and taking my senior dogs for walks. I’m also a big foodie and love discovering new restaurants.
I have interned for 2 years at Riverplace Elementary being apart of the Ready, Set, Teach program when I attended Vandegrift High School. I worked with a classroom full of first and second graders. Additionally I have volunteered with pre-k (4 year olds). I have also babysat family friends children in the past ages ranging from 1-7 years old. I have also nannied for a little over a year with two kiddos since they were 4 months and 2 years old.I would say I am a quick learner, very outgoing and caring. I love working with kids and will find multiple activities to make sure they are happy and having a great time. My major is elementary education early childhood to 6th grade.
