I retired 6 years ago and moved to Austin after living in Dallas for 35 years. I raised 4 kids, 3 and under while working full time and maintaining my sanity ;-) My kids are all grown and now I have two grandkids 4 and 10 months here that I help out with when needed. My 4 year old grandson spends the night with me and is always asking to come over to my place. I also tutor math at one of the middle schools. I have hosted 9 international exchange students for a year of high school and still involved in the program though I don’t host any longer. I speak passable Spanish as well. I learned when raising my family how to be flexible, organized, creative and loving. I like to have fun and interact with my grandkids. We don’t watch a lot of television but instead play age appropriate games that are fun and interactive. I can bring the same fun, loving experience to you.

Caring for others has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. As the oldest of three siblings, I learned early on how to nurture, support, and create a sense of safety for them. That instinct only deepened as I raised my two daughters, help care for my three grandsons, and spend over eight years working in a childcare environment. Several families have personally entrusted me with their child outside the childcare environment. I am currently a preschool teacher, and I truly enjoy going to work each day. Supporting children as they learn, grow, and express themselves is something I genuinely love. I have also had the privilege of caring for my mother during her journey with early-onset Alzheimer’s. That experience strengthened my patience, compassion, and ability to show up with steadiness during difficult seasons. Whether caring for children, seniors, or pets (I’ve never met one I didn’t connect with)! I bring warmth, reliability, and heartfelt attention to every family I work with. I would be honored to provide thoughtful, personal care whenever it’s needed.

I am a mother of four (kids range from 9 to 19 in our house) and I've worked for the last 8 years as a postpartum doula supporting babies and mothers as the family expands and transforms.

Hi - I’m Madison Vogt. I’m a senior at Westlake high school. I offer childcare services along with pet services. I have been taking care of my younger siblings and family friends since I was 12. I live in a home with four younger siblings (ages 9-15) with a single dad who travels constantly so my responsibilities have always included taking kids to and from school, running errands, helping with homework, cooking and nighttime routines, I’m great with crafting, sports, and make believe. I’ve been babysitting for the past two years through Bambino. I am great with babies–15 y/o. I’m so excited to meet your family!
