$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ella, and I am going into my sophomore year of college. I have lived in Austin my whole life, and I am interested in finding a consistent babysitting/nannying job here! I grew up in a big family and have taken care of my younger cousins from a young age. I love babysitting and have been helping family friends' families with childcare since middle school. In addition to babysitting and helping my family out, I was also a PAL in high school. A program where you mentor elementary and middle school students and spend time with them during recess time. My responsibilities have included helping with homework, doing crafts, cooking, tidying up, and also watching family pets (even snakes). I can clean up, make meals, and do creative, fun, engaging activities. I would be interested in running errands too! I am not allergic to any animals. I love cats, dogs, bunnies, and hamsters (I am a big animal person)! I have had pets and been around animals my whole life. Please reach out if you need help! - Ella

Booked by 1 family in Austin, TX

I am a mom of two, Ava (10) and Andrew (17) and one Corgie/Chihuahua named Chloe. I was a stay at home mom for both my kids and continue to work a schedule so that I can pick up my daughter from school. I recently started helping take care of my friend's baby who just turned one and loved every minute of it. I grew up nannying for my younger cousins in the summers (three girls) and it was extremely fulfilling. I have a BS from the University of Texas at Austin in Communiation and am a certified Personal Trainer. I also do home organization and pet care because I can't sit still for long. I love all breeds of dogs and so do my children!

Illaria is great! Super on time and my baby loved her!

Hi I’m Claudia! I’m the oldest of three siblings, so caring for kids has been second nature to me. I’ve been babysitting all ages since I was 12 and love creating a fun, safe, and playful environment for kids. I love playing games, coloring, reading, being outside, and cooking. I went to college in Austin and loved it so much I decided to stay! I’m compassionate, responsible, and always bring a patient, nurturing approach to childcare. I look forward to caring for your little ones!

Claudia helped with our 9 month old while we worked from home and we were very pleased! She was fun, easygoing, and patient with our daughter and they had a great day together! Excited to book with Claudia in the future! As a plus she was also fantastic with our dog!

"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

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
