Booked by 4 families in Austin, TX

Hi! I’m Cassidy — a caring, reliable, and upbeat babysitter with 7+ years of childcare experience. I spent 2 years working in a licensed daycare caring for newborns and infants, and I’ve also babysat toddlers through middle-schoolers for many years. Im CPR certified. I’m comfortable with feedings, nap routines, bedtime transitions, activity planning, and developmental play. I’m naturally warm, patient, and bubbly, and I love engaging kids in fun and meaningful activities — whether that’s crafts, reading, outdoor play, creative games, or calm downtime when needed. I’m also happy to help with homework support, driving to activities, errands, and light household tasks, and I’m comfortable with pets. I’m very organized and dependable, and I always aim to create a safe, positive, and enjoyable environment where children feel cared for — and parents feel supported. My goal is to not just watch your child, but to connect with them, encourage their confidence, and make your daily life a little easier. Looking forward to meeting your family!

“Great gal! Very personable and engaging with our kids. We'll most definitely have her back! ”

Beau-Blue 2 reviews

Hello, my name is Beau-Blue. I recently turned 30 and am a dedicated, hardworking professional with dual U.K. and U.S. citizenship and a lifelong background in childcare and pet care. At age 12, my mother opened a daycare in our family home. By 16, I was formally trained and verified to assist her in emergency situations, and the summer I turned 17, I worked alongside her full-time. During that time, I obtained Infant through Adult CPR certification and became a certified lifeguard under Ofsted regulations. I continued working with her for four additional consecutive years, maintaining all certifications while balancing those responsibilities with a full-time position in customer service and hospitality, until I relocated in 2017. In 2017, I moved to the United States to work at Camp Vega in Maine as an in-bunk camp counselor. I served as a “den mother” to children ages 5–8 and also taught photography and videography to campers ranging from 5–15 years old. In 2018, I relocated to Los Angeles. Alongside continuing my career in customer service and hospitality, I worked as a nanny for working families (including colleagues) and subsequently through word-of-mouth referrals. Professional references are available upon request. My responsibilities extended well beyond basic childcare. They included school pick-ups and drop-offs, transportation to extracurricular activities (with a vehicle provided), preparing nutritious snacks and full meals while accommodating dietary restrictions and allergies, assisting with homework and school projects, and managing structured bedtime routines. I am equally comfortable supporting morning routines. Additionally, I am happy to assist with light household errands as needed to ensure the smooth operation of the home. I truly enjoy working alongside families and bring my own attentive, nurturing approach to create a happy, healthy, and engaging environment for children. I look forward to getting to know yours.

“Beau is amazing with kids! She’s attentive, yet easy going. She’s able to tap into her child like wonder to help your child learn and grow all while having fun. She’s punctual and holds herself to a high standard of professionalism in all of her responsibilities. She’s very compassionate and kindhearted. I’ve known her to help complete strangers, especially when children are involved. She’s the kind of person to give you the shirt off her back with a smile on her face because she knows she will also be taken care of in return. She’s great in a crisis if one were to ever arrive and she’s incredible at foreseeing possible outcomes of situations and choosing the best option for safety. I value my friendship with Beau immensely and will ask her to be the godmother of my future children.”

I am currently in search of a full time Nanny or House Manager position. I have several years of experience working with multiple kiddos starting at 4 months. My goal is to make your life easier and for the entire family feel truly supported. From routine to meal prep to child development, I am here for it all! I have a passion for raising children with love and curiosity. I am a big believer in the village - we were not mean to do this alone. I have called Austin home for over 15 years. In 2015 I received my Yoga Teacher certification and recently completed my Postpartum Doula certification. I have 1 dog who is my life and we spend as much time at the greenbelt as possible. I genuinely love to be of service and helping your family thrive in this hectic world is my goal. Please let me know if you have any questions ☀️

“Brittany made me feel at ease, handled Julian well despite him not having many caregivers other than me. She was professional, kind and easy going. ”

"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."

Kamilah W., mom of one

"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)."
