Find infant babysitters in Bertram, TX

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

My personality is patient, responsible, and compassionate. I’m naturally nurturing but also very reliable and detail-oriented, which helps when managing schedules, household routines, and making sure everyone’s needs are met. I believe communication, trust, and consistency are very important when caring for others. Some of my strengths include being organized, observant, and calm under pressure. I’m also very respectful of each family’s routines and preferences, and I aim to make life easier by helping with daily tasks like light housekeeping, meal preparation, errands, or pet care when needed. Overall, I bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and genuine care for the well-being of the people and homes I work with.

I have been working professionally with children for over 9 years and have babysat children between the ages of 1 month and 13 years. I have experience with date night sitting, and morning and after school pick up. Responsibilities include travel to and from after school activities, indoor and outdoor play time, meal preparation, homework help, bath time supervision and help, and bedtime supervision. Regarding infants and toddlers, there were additional responsibilities such as feeding and burping, diaper changing, and safely putting the infant to sleep. I also completed light household chores, such as putting away leftover toys and organizing play spaces, cooking, washing dishes, sweeping floors, and cleaning the kitchen and dining area. I have overseen children during play dates and birthday parties, and am comfortable with babysitting multiple children at once. I always recognize the importance of keeping children mentally and physically challenged. I believe that I have the awareness to teach children how to fix and learn from their mistakes in a way that they will understand while maintaining an environment that is fun and safe. Distance is no problem for me, since I have a driver’s license and a car, and I am willing to add a child car seat to travel with children. I love working with pets, and have professionally walked and cared for dogs for over 4 years and cats for over 11 years. I have cared for dogs and cats for both short term (1-2 days) and long term (7+ days) periods, and can care for your pets while babysitting if needed, as well as when you are away from home. I am available for last minute gigs and am flexible working longer hours or morning/weekend hours. Babysitting is a difficult yet rewarding line of work. It requires a unique kind of problem solving that allows me to interact with children in the way my babysitters interacted with me. I believe that I am the living example of the quote "It takes a village to raise a child". To me, there’s nothing more unifying and empowering than that-- participating in the ‘village’ of individuals to help promote the growth of a child. As I learn more about myself and follow my dreams, I am always delighted for the opportunity to push children to follow theirs.
