Regiane $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Regiane. Thank you for looking at my resume. I am looking for a job as a babysitter or a house Manager. I am a mother of two girls, the oldest is 13 and the youngest is 11 years old. I already have experience babysitting kids. I was a babysitter of triplets for 17 years. I started to take care of them when they were only 1 year old, and I took care of them until they started high school. I was the manager of the house and when they went to college, I took a 7year break to take care of my daughters. I went back to babysitting in 2020. My first job back was with twin boys that had autism. I worked with them for almost 3 years until they started school. After that I started working with another family of twin girl with autism as well. I’m just leaving them because we are moving to Texas. I love kids and I have a good experience with them and I have experience with kids with autism. I have references if you need!!! Thank you very much! Sincerely, Regiane.

Booked by 1 family in Leander, 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

Victoria $27 per hour for 1 child

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.
