Booked by 6 families in Lakeway, TX

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.

Hi, I am "Grammy." I love my six grandchildren and see them often. I have a lot of experience with my own children (now grown), and grandchildren. I also have a few years experience with after school care. My Seniors experiences are from when I was working for a home care agency and more recently, taking care of my mother's needs. I have had kitty and dog family members for most of my life. I would love to meet and care for your family

Corshaya $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Corshaya, but I go by Shaya/Shay. I’ve recently gotten back into babysitting as a side hustle, but have been sitting practically my whole life! I’m an aunt of 8 nieces/nephews, which has given me all the best experiences of caring for kids. I work and play volleyball at Roots VBC, where I sometimes get the opportunity to coach wonderful children, and share my known expertise. Recently being around kids all day, has opened my heart up to wanting to use it as an opportunity to help others or even give working parents a break when they need it. With that being said, coming from a big family of 9, I know the true meaning of “it takes a village”, and Id love to be apart of that village. Creating bonds and trust with your child(s), pets, elders, is the most rewarding part of doing what I do.

Booked by 33 families in Lakeway, TX

Hi there! I’m a responsible, caring sitter with experience babysitting throughout college and a genuine love for working with kids. I hold an undergraduate degree in elementary education and originally began my career in teaching, but made a career shift about 5 years ago and transitioned into the corporate world. I currently work full-time, but I’m available for date nights, evenings, and weekends and do my best to be flexible when I can. My background in education gives me a strong foundation in child development, structure, and engagement—whether that’s helping with homework, creating fun activities, or supporting consistent routines. Parents can count on me to be reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and positive environment for kids. I’m excited to reconnect with babysitting families and provide trustworthy care whenever you need an extra set of hands!
