Hi! My name is Olivia! I am currently working full-time in corporate sales in Austin, and I'm looking to babysit on evenings and weekends because working with kids has always been something | genuinely love and enjoy. I started babysitting at 15 years old in my church nursery, caring for children ranging from 3 months to 10 years old. Since then, I've worked with multiple families over the years and have also gained experience through roles in kids clubs at gyms, summer camps, and church programs. I have 8+ years of paid childcare experience, have taken multiple CPR courses, and have reliable transportation. I'm responsible, organized, patient, and safety-focused, while also making sure kids feel comfortable, engaged, and have fun. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and get to know your little
Hi! My name is Virginia and I’m a senior in college. I’m studying communications and journalism. I have three nieces and three nephews back at home in Dallas, Texas. I love them so much! Their ages range from 6-12 at the moment. I have also babysat for couples since I was young. I miss getting to babysit at home so I’m hopeful to help parents out nearby!

I have more than 20 years of experience supporting private families as an enrichment nanny, house manager, family assistant, private chef, wellness specialist, and caregiver. My approach is warm, highly attentive, creative, organized, and deeply individualized. I’m often described as a calming presence who brings more ease, beauty, nourishment, play, and connection into a home. My childcare experience spans newborns through teenagers, including caring for multiple children and large families. I’ve cared for five infants simultaneously in a private daycare, supported a six-child household as a live-in nanny, cared for a baby from two to seven months, and mentored teens through challenging life transitions. I especially enjoy supporting neurodivergent and highly sensitive children. I bring an unusually broad enrichment background to childcare. Depending on a child’s age and interests, our days might include storytelling, reading, music, singing, creative arts, nature exploration, cooking, comedy improv, yoga, meditation, Qi Gong, gentle martial arts, movement, emotional-intelligence games, life skills, and plenty of imaginative play. I emphasize confidence, curiosity, emotional regulation, respectful communication, healthy boundaries, resilience, and helping each child feel genuinely seen and understood. I also have extensive household-management experience, including organizing closets, drawers and pantries; creating household systems; scheduling; family logistics; grocery shopping; stocking; laundry; packing; travel planning; inventory management; decluttering; toy rotation; pet care; and maintaining peaceful, functional homes. I’m comfortable with live-in, live-out, rotational, overnight, travel, and estate environments. As a gourmet longevity chef and wellness professional, I prepare beautiful, nutrient-dense meals and have experience with Ayurveda, longevity nutrition, wellness routines, yoga, mindfulness, bodywork, and lymphatic practices. My caregiving experience also extends to older adults and individuals navigating illness, recovery, disability, major surgery, Parkinson’s disease, and end-of-life transitions. These experiences have strengthened my discretion, adaptability, emotional intelligence, judgment, and ability to remain steady during tender or complex circumstances. Ultimately, I see my role as helping the entire household thrive: children feel safe, loved and engaged; parents feel genuinely supported; and the home becomes calmer, he
Hi! I’m Lizbeth. I have over two years of experience as a Medical Assistant in a pediatric clinic and I’m BLS certified. I currently also work as a Patient Care Technician at a hospital here in Austin, and I’ll be starting school for Surgical Technology soon. Caring for others is truly what I do every day. In pediatrics, I work closely with infants, toddlers, and children of all ages — helping them feel safe, calm, and comfortable. My medical background has trained me to be very attentive, patient, and quick to recognize when a child needs extra support or care. I’m happy to help with: • infant and toddler care • diaper changes and feedings • bedtime routines • meals and snacks • playtime, reading, and homework help • keeping things tidy after activities I’m calm, responsible, and very respectful of your home and your child’s routine. My goal is always for kids to feel comfortable and for parents to feel completely at peace while they’re away. I’m a great fit for: • date nights • evenings after school/daycare • weekend babysitting • families with infants or toddlers • last-minute bookings If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, experienced with children, and medically trained, I’d love to help your family!
