My name is Brooklyn; I moved to Texas from out of state. I am currently an accounting manager for a nonprofit. I am available for after-work and weekend childcare. While living in San Diego, CA, I babysat for several families. I did after-school pickup and drop off at sports for two siblings for one family, and then I did weekend babysitting for another family with two siblings. In addition to babysitting, I assisted in teaching summer dance and cheer programs for three years, I took a couple of child development classes in high school and college, volunteered to help a preschool class a few times a year at the preschool my mother worked at, and nannied a 1-year-old for a year. I also help my sister with her 6 year old twins. I have extensive knowledge of everything Disney does, know a bit about sports, and am up-to-date on kids' shows. I'm fun and energetic and love to be active and engaging. *For pet owners, please inform me if you have a cat. I am deathly allergic.*
“Brooklyn was great we look forward to having her again!”
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! My name is Brenai. I am 27 years old. I have a social work degree. I have studied the development of children from newborns to middle school aged. I have 7 years plus working with children as well. I am first aid/CPR certified. I am very reliable, dependable, responsible, and eager to learn. I am always on call! I have my own transportation.

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!
“Angelina is a BABY WHISPERER! She is a dream. She arrived on time, was a pleasure to have around, and it was pretty clear from the jump that she is a PRO. I couldn't recommend her highly enough!”
*pet sitting only* Hi there! I am a 5 star rated pet sitter in the South Austin area, and I love animals! I have cared for my pets and friends/family pets since I was 12 years old. I am a reliable, friendly, and kind animal lover. I understand fully how your pet is a part of your family and should be cared for as such. I look forward to making your life a little easier by checking in on your cat or walking and visiting with your dog. I am happy to watch animals in my home or happy to watch them in their home. I have recently moved to South Austin, but I am not against still watching pets up north 🙂 Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. Hope to hear from you soon 😁
“Crystal is a phenomenal pet sitter! She is very responsive and provides daily updates and photos when watching my pup. I highly recommend her!”
