Booked by 19 families in Leander, TX

Hello! My name is Allyssa! I have been a childcare provider for over twelve years. I am currently available to provide care on weeknights and weekends as well as holidays. At this time I’m not able to care for sick children. A little about my childcare related work history: I began working at my local church nursery, and then helped with the “twos” class, AWANA, and the morning “twos -kinder” Sunday school class. I have been a swim instructor at the YMCA, volunteered at a camp for children with cancer (survivor and former camper myself,) and I have been tutoring college students for the past three years and more recently k-12 in the past two years. I have worked with children ages 3mons-14year. I have held positions with several families as a nanny during school breaks and most recently worked helping with distance learning for a family prior to leaving for a full time position in my area of study when the kids returned to in person learning! If you have any other questions please ask! I’d love to share and appreciate the chance to get to know you and your family a little better! Thank you for considering me! Policies: I do not spank. I defer to the family for other forms of discipline. ***Late return fee*** If parents return more than 15 minutes late,rate is time an a half for the time beyond the scheduled return home. FOR SAFETY OF THE CHILDREN - I WILL NOT RELEASE THE CHILDREN TO ANYONE OTHER THAN THE PERSONS WHO HIRED ME WITHOUT NOTICE AHEAD OF THE START TIME AND A COPY OF THE DRIVERS LICENSE OF THE PERSONS I AM RELEASING THE CHILD(REN) TO. Cancelation fee of parents - More than 48 hours notice, no fee. Less than 48 hours 25% of booking. Within 24 hours 50% of booking. Within 8 hours 100% of booking fee.

Regiane $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Regiane. Thank you for looking at my resume. I am looking for a job as a babysitter or a house Manager. I am a mother of two girls, the oldest is 13 and the youngest is 11 years old. I already have experience babysitting kids. I was a babysitter of triplets for 17 years. I started to take care of them when they were only 1 year old, and I took care of them until they started high school. I was the manager of the house and when they went to college, I took a 7year break to take care of my daughters. I went back to babysitting in 2020. My first job back was with twin boys that had autism. I worked with them for almost 3 years until they started school. After that I started working with another family of twin girl with autism as well. I’m just leaving them because we are moving to Texas. I love kids and I have a good experience with them and I have experience with kids with autism. I have references if you need!!! Thank you very much! Sincerely, Regiane.

Hi there! I'm Jenna. I am here on UrbanSitter to offer childcare, caregiving, and pet sitting services on an as needed basis. A little about me: I am a wife and mother to a 16 year old with two dogs in the home. I work remote full time as the head of support for an ecommerce company! As a former Kindergarten teacher, I have the experience you want and strive for excellence for the sake of excellence alone. I believe in challenging others to do more than what they thought possible and I take the safety and experience of every child, individual, and pet as a top priority. I am available for childcare/caregiving on evenings and weekends with full availability for pet sitting that would allow me to work from your home. Best, Jenna
