Sofiyat $20 per hour for 1 child

Here's an expanded version that comfortably meets the 150-word requirement while including your library and community babysitting experience: I have extensive hands-on childcare experience that began within my own family. As one of five children, I helped care for my four younger siblings from infancy through childhood. When my twin sisters were newborns, I worked alongside my mother by caring for one twin while she cared for the other. I assisted with feeding, diaper changes, bathing, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I also helped care for another younger sister from infancy, giving me experience with children at different developmental stages. In addition to caring for my siblings, I regularly babysat my aunt's four children, whose ages ranged from infants to teenagers. I also provided babysitting services for mothers in my community, including supervising and caring for children at the local library while parents attended programs or completed errands. These experiences strengthened my ability to care for multiple children at once while keeping them engaged, safe, and comfortable. I also have experience providing behavioral therapy for children with autism, which helped me develop patience, strong communication skills, and effective behavior-management techniques. My greatest strengths as a caregiver are my reliability, compassion, attentiveness, and nurturing nature. I genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel supported, and I strive to create a safe, positive, and caring environment for every child I work with.

Theresa $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Theresa and I am offering senior care, household assistance and pet care. I have been working with seniors for six years and thoroughly enjoy it! They have lived long lives and, so I like to do what I can to make their lives easier and give them a chance to rest. I enjoy talking to them and hearing their stories. When I am with them I consider myself an extension of their family, so I treat them accordingly. I enjoy just spending time with them and talking. I can take them to the grocery store, the library, or any other activities they might have. I can call doctors and make appointments and get them to those appointments as well. I can also work as a household assistant. I enjoy helping with whatever I can to make your day easier, whether that means helping out around the house, paying bills, making appointments, running errands, food prepping, or whatever else might be needed. Many of my clients have had pets, so I have lots of experience feeding, walking, or playing with dogs of all sizes and breeds, and just spending time with cats. I love animals. My family has two cats and a dog.

Maureen $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi I'm Mo! I've been taking care of kids throughout my entire life. Being the 5th out of 17 grandkids on my dad's side and coming from a big family there were always babies and little kids around. I grew up on Long Island in NY, went to school and lived in Boston for 9 years and then had a 10 year adventure overseas in Australia. I've been back in the States and living in Austin since 2017. I had a long term part time nanny position in Australia for 2 children that lasted almost 8 years on and off. This included full time care for the children when their mother travelled including school drop off/pickup, meals, homework, extra curricular activities, household management, bath and bed time. I have had 3 nanny positions over the past few years for newborns. I have been teaching Pre-K for the last 2 1/2 years. We have 9-12 kids on any given day in the age range of 18 months-5 years old. I have also been pet sitting and house sitting for over 20 years on a regular basis. I'm currently finishing a nanny position for a wonderful family. I started taking care of their daughter last October 2025 when she was 1.5 months old. She will be going into full time daycare mid August, so I am looking for my next family to care for!

Claire $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi parents! I’m Claire, and I truly love caring for kids. I started by helping with my little sister and later babysat for my neighbors for about three years. I’ve looked after up to three little ones at a time, from newborns to 12years old. I’m still close with many of them — some are even in college now! Spending time with children always makes me happy and relaxed. Their pure and joyful world is the best place to be. I’m also certified in childcare and infant first aid, and I always put safety and love first.
