Booked by 59 families in Cedar Park, TX

Hi there! My name is Arby. I've been in Austin for about 5 years now and have become pretty established with the area. I currently work 2-3 days caring for a 2 year old. Outside of childcare, I’m in school working on pursuing urban planning at Texas State University and doing creative work on the side. I began my experience with children at my church at around 13 years old, all the way up to being assistant manager of the after school program of the school I worked at, and nannying. I have experience caring for children outside of home. I also have experience caring for children while parents are travelling and being a travel caregiver. I have housesitting/petsitting experience as well. As a big art lover, I enjoy engaging children in arts & crafts and finding ways to stimulate their creativity. I enjoy imaginary play as well! I also travel to DFW once a month so I sit over there sometimes as well. :) ***Please note: I do a charge for last-minute cancellations. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to meeting you!

“Candace is fantastic with my little girls and they look forward to her babysitting them every time. She's also reliable and is a quick learner. Every kid has their own routine, food preferences, etc. and it can be a lot to catch a babysitter up on, but Candace learns quickly and retains everything.”

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!”

Hi there! My name is Anarra, and by day, I am a elementary school music teacher! Kids of all ages have been my life for as long as I can remember, from taking care of my younger siblings as a child, to getting my first babysitting job for the neighbors at age 12, and nothing brings me greater joy than earning the trust and love of a child. I have worked with all ages from newborn - middle school aged, and I have experience with multiples, as well as premies. I have nannied full time for two different families with twins (2mo old boys, and 6mo old girls) and still do the occasional date night with both families! I do mostly date nights and weekends, but have also worked with two families as a night nanny, starting with babies as young as 2 weeks! I love to sing and dance, and play, and I’m always down for a round of dress up or playing with trains and monster trucks. I have two degrees, one in Music Education, and one in early childhood education. I have dedicated my life to loving and caring for children, and in my opinion, there’s nothing better in the world. I look forward to meeting you!

“She was great with our kids and dogs immediately and got rave reviews from my kids the next day, would definitely have her back again!”
