Booked by 1 family in Taylor, TX

Hi there! I’m a certified behavior therapist with a year of experience working closely with children on the autism spectrum, helping them navigate milestones in fun, creative, and engaging ways. My passion for working with kids started early—I’ve been babysitting since I was 13, caring for large family households in my church. I also have extensive experience house-sitting and pet-sitting for friends and family, and I absolutely love all animals! With my positive, enthusiastic spirit, I’m always excited to tackle any task and give my best to every family I work with!

“Our kids loved having Bailey! They asked when she can come again, and to add her to our “favorites!””

Booked by 3 families in Taylor, TX

Hi! My name is Jenevieve. I recently moved to the Austin area from California. I enjoy working with children and family pets and am passionate about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I am currently a preschool teacher in Round Rock, where I work with young children every day, helping them learn, grow, and develop through play, hands-on activities, and positive guidance. Before moving to Texas, I worked as a Nanny/Household Assistant for several wonderful families in California. I have experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and school-age children. As a mother of two grown children, I understand the importance of providing dependable, loving care. My responsibilities have included school drop-offs and pick-ups, crafts, reading, sensory activities, meal preparation, light housekeeping, running errands, and transporting children to extracurricular activities. I also provided pet care for families while they were away on vacation. Whether you need an occasional babysitter, pet sitter, or an extra helping hand, I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

“We had a great experience using Jen as a sitter for our two girls. They took to her right away. She was happy to prepare dinner for them and got them to bed on time. She cleaned the kitchen and straightened up before we arrived home and that was a really nice touch. We will definitely hire again. Very kind and easy to work with. ”

Itzy $20 per hour for 1 child

I currently work full-time while attending college online full-time, and I’m looking to earn extra income doing something I genuinely love: caring for others! My experience started with babysitting my younger cousins and family friends’ children. I also helped raise my little sisters while my mom worked long hours. Later, I worked at the same daycare my sisters attended, gaining experience with children of different ages. I genuinely LOVE playing with children, doing arts and crafts, and coming up with fun, creative activities to keep them entertained! At family gatherings, I’m always the person the kids run to because they know I’ll have something fun planned for them. I love making children feel included, happy, and comfortable while creating memories with them. I also have plenty of customer service experience, have taken basic psychology classes, and consider myself patient, responsible, compassionate, and dependable. I love seniors as well and would be more than happy to provide companionship, help with everyday tasks, or assist with their care. I grew up around all kinds of animals, including cattle, horses, dogs, cats, and goats, so I’m comfortable with pets and open to different household needs. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish, so I can help children practice either language in a fun, natural way. I’m happy to meet with parents and their children beforehand to make sure we’re a good fit and everyone feels comfortable. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and fun environment while making your family’s life a little easier!
