**Only available for occasional jobs due to my work schedule** Hi! My name is Nicole and I am a UT Austin and Texas Tech HSC alumni. I have a Bachelor’s in Human Development & Family Sciences, which essentially means that I studied lifespan human development and relationships with an additional focus on children and family structures. I also have a Bachelor’s in Nursing and have been babysitting for 5 years. I have experience working with elementary-aged children and toddlers through babysitting, after-school programs for students in Austin, and in-classroom teaching experiences at the University of Texas at Austin Priscilla Pond Flawn Child & Family Laboratory. I have also been a summer camp counselor at Kids Across America and an after-school science teacher for MADScience Austin. I volunteered in various sections of Dell Children's Hospital, previously in the Volunteer Services and Child Life department. I later joined the Children’s Comprehensive Care Clinic. I am BLS and First Aid certified. I have worked as a Community Living Specialist, helping children with serious emotional disturbances learn skills to help them remain independent and in their homes with their parents/caregivers. I have also worked with middle school and high school students at my local church for the past 3 years. I currently work as an RN in a local hospital.

My name is Lauren and I am from Dallas, Texas! I am an educational audiologist working for the region of Austin. I recently moved from San Francisco to Austin and have had tons of child care experience, as I entered college (2011) seeking a degree in early child care... but decided I wanted to study something a little more challenging for me and that's how I ended up studying audiology. I've worked at summer camps with specialities in autism, gymnastics summer camps/nights out, taken a variety of early childhood education courses, and worked in the NICU/well born nursery doing hearing screenings for three years. I have had numerous families I worked with in SF and am now looking to establish new families to work with. Looking forward to working with you and your family!

Hi there! I’m an undergraduate student at UT Austin studying Nutritional Sciences with a passion for working with children of all backgrounds and abilities. Having a twin with special needs has given me firsthand experience and deep understanding of the unique care and attention that children with special needs require. For the past five years, I’ve served as a leader, counselor, and caretaker for children ages 4-16, which has given me extensive experience managing different age groups and personalities. I also have significant experience caretaking for infants. My degree has provided me with vast knowledge on behaviors, feeding patterns, and developmental milestones of infants, giving me unique insight into proper infant care. As a pre-med student, I have clinical experience and medical skills that enhance my caregiving abilities. I’m trained to take vitals, use a glucometer, and provide basic medical assistance when needed. While I’m not a doctor, my pre-medical studies have given me a solid foundation in health monitoring and emergency response, making me comfortable caring for children with medical conditions or seniors requiring additional health support. My background in nutrition allows me to prepare healthy, delicious meals and snacks that kids actually enjoy, and I love involving them in cooking and baking activities that are both fun and educational. I’m also available for tutoring and homework help! I can assist with any subject for middle school and under, and I specialize in science tutoring for high school students. Whether it’s nightly reading sessions or tackling challenging assignments, I’m here to support academic success. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and would be happy to create a Spanish immersion environment for your children if interested. I understand how valuable early language exposure can be! I have a reliable car and travel between Houston and Austin in the summer. During school, I live in central Austin, so I’m flexible with location and can easily handle pickup and drop-off duties. I’m particularly available for weekend and late-night sitting when you need it most. What sets me apart is my combination of personal experience with special needs care, professional childcare background, nutrition expertise, medical training, academic support skills, and genuine enthusiasm for helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. I’d love to meet your family and discuss how I can support your needs!

Hi! I'm Angelina and I'm a 31-year-old nanny in Austin, Texas. I have over 15 years of experience providing babysitting services for dozens of families with children varying in age from 3 months to 12-years-old. I have also spent time volunteering with Autism Ambassadors, Special Olympics, and Building Connections, all organizations aimed at helping children with special needs. I'm very involved in the theater and comedy scene here in Austin which I believe bleeds over into my babysitting style. I love stimulating creativity in children! Doing art projects and putting on skits with kids brings me as much joy as it brings them. If you want to know anything more about me, please don't hesitate to reach out!
