Booked by 4 families in Austin, TX

Over the years, I've had the privilege of caring for kids in various capacities, and it's a role I genuinely enjoy. I believe in creating an environment where children feel secure, valued, and free to explore their creativity. I am confident in my ability to provide responsible and attentive care in the absence of parents. I've learned the importance of simple joys, like reading bedtime stories, engaging in play, and helping with homework. I understand the responsibility that comes with caring for someone else's child, and I take it to heart. I am committed to being attentive, adaptable, and, most importantly, someone the children can feel comfortable around. In my previous roles as a babysitter, I have enhanced my skills in creating a safe and engaging environment for children of various age groups. My responsibilities included supervising activities, implementing safety measures, and attending to the basic needs of the children under my care. I pride myself on my ability to establish positive and nurturing relationships with the children, ensuring their comfort and happiness. Beyond providing attentive care, I find joy in engaging children with creative activities, such as crafts, nature walks. Additionally, my hobby of cooking healthy and nutritious meals and snacks aligns with my commitment to promoting their well-being. I am eager to bring my enthusiasm, kindness, and genuine love for kids. I am more than willing to learn and adapt to family's specific needs and routines.

Maya was awesome with my three-year-old! She's super calm and patient, and she really clicked with him. Plus, she whipped up a healthy lunch that he actually ate, which is a big win in my book. She’s also a nutritionist, so it's cool to have someone who gets our healthy lifestyle. He had a blast, and we can’t wait to have her back!

$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm a mom of two (ages 7 and 9), and both of my kids are now in school full-time. I currently work as a substitute at their school, and I’m looking for a nanny or babysitting position to offset the days, between 8 AM and 2 PM. I’m also available for some weekend and night care with advance notice. I can also offer pet watching, dog walking, running errands, and house work as well. With my hands-on experience raising my kids, plus my time working at their school, I’m very familiar with all stages of childhood development and love creating a safe, fun environment for kids to learn and grow!

I’m an easy going responsible person who takes great care in looking over other peoples pets. If you hire me, I will make sure your pet is well taken care of and that when you return home it is exactly how you left it, and maybe even better.

Ian was timely, my dog was well loved and cared for. Would definitely recommend Ian.

Hello! My name is Kam! I’m currently a full time nanny for a private family. Prior to nannying, I was an ABA therapist. This taught me a lot about teaching styles and learning styles. I have experience with a vast variety of ages from toddler to adult caretaking. I would love to be an addition to the right household! (:

Booked by 1 family in Austin, TX

Hi - My name is Génesis and I am offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I have a background in nursing and hands-on experience in the newborn area, where I cared for premature babies, infants, and children with special needs. This gave me strong skills in handling delicate situations with patience and care, as well as the ability to provide safe support and administer medications when required. I enjoy caring for children of all ages and have also supported kids with conditions that required extra attention and adapted routines. I always focus on creating a safe and nurturing environment where children can feel comfortable, valued, and cared for. I am patient, responsible, and compassionate, and I take pride in being organized and dependable. Along with child care, I also have experience supporting seniors in their daily activities, offering respectful and reliable assistance. I am comfortable helping with meals, errands, and companionship. I also enjoy caring for pets and understand how important they are to every family. In addition, I can assist with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, organizing, and running errands. I always bring positive energy, dedication, and commitment to everything I do, with the goal of giving families peace of mind knowing their loved ones—whether children, seniors, or pets—are being cared for with respect and love.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."

Eric D., dad of two
