Hi! My name is Mia, and I am a recent college graduate. I am offering child care, pet care, senior care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have been watching toddlers and kids (including twins!) since I was 13 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, camp, crafts, and tutoring. I can also cook, clean, and run errands. I have been a caretaker for a senior citizen who had a broken hip, so I am completely comfortable with senior care. I have dog-sat before and also have my own cat, so I can take care of both cats and dogs!
Hello, I'm Peggy! I'm an infant specialist who can help the baby and family ease through the first couple months after your precious little ones have arrived. I've been working with children from infant to school age for more than 12 years. I am a former teacher in one of the well-known school districts in Austin. TX . I have extensive experiences working with infants and am CA & TX certified. I am looking for part-time infant care position and tutoring opportunities in Math and Mandarin. My single family home is also available for drop-in-care when needed. Please feel free to contact me for any questions you might have. Reference and rates are available upon request. Thank you!
Hi, my name is Betsy. I started by taking care of my cousins and watching over them. Over time I started to take care of more children and take this more seriously. I’ve worked with various families over the years, and kids of all ages. From one time occasional, to part time. I love to interact with the kids and enjoy the outdoors. I love to draw and read with them. In my free time I like to cook and do crossword puzzles! - CPR certified
“We had a wonderful experience! She was punctual, friendly, and absolutely great with our kids. She followed all of our instructions and went above and beyond what we asked. It gave us peace of mind knowing our kids were in such good hands. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
Hello! My name is Emily. I am a pediatric speech therapist. I love children and have worked with kids of all ages throughout my life in varying roles from nanny to therapist. I decided to become a sitter because in therapy, my time working with a child was typically limited to a 30-minute timeframe; additionally, more of my time was spent writing lengthy justifications for insurance companies than working with the child. The reason I chose to work with children is that I enjoy them! And I want to spend time with them, engaging them on all levels. I was a single parent (until my daughter was 10 years of age) before meeting my amazing husband who I've now been married to for 24 years! Although we have become empty-nesters, I remember the challenges that come with parenting, and I have extreme gratitude for those who supported me through the years with their time, love, and encouragement. P.S. I now have a grandson and granddaughter who are the apples of my eye (I promise, it is the best role ever)! From my early years of caring for younger siblings and/or cousins, baby-sitting, and eventually enjoying my friend’s kids, I have always had an innate talent for meeting kids where they are...for seeing their needs and their talents and helping, listening, and encouraging them in their daily activities and/or struggles. I believe children need to feel loved, heard, challenged, and inspired, and that is one of my greatest desires. Plainly said, I have a huge heart for children and feel a strong calling to help them become their very best selves. I have a background in music (vocal performance) and love to implement music throughout my daily life. I also enjoy animals, baking, arts and crafts, reading, bird-watching, and spending time outdoors (especially anything water-related). I like routines, I am a neatnik (although I appreciate a good mess in the name of adventure), I choose creativity over screen-time, and I am a stickler for good manners and respect for others.
“Emily is incredible!! So kind and warm and genuine. My son is picky about who he likes and he LOVED her. They made paper airplanes, swam , dance party...he didn't even care that I left he was having such a great time.”
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.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
Laura F., mom of two
