Quinyania 1 review
$16 per hour for 1 child

Hi families! I’m Quinyania, an experienced nanny and former home-based childcare provider with over 10+ years of professional childcare experience. I’ve been living and working in Austin for the last three years caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children for multiple families in the North Austin/Domain area. Before moving to Austin, I operated a Texas Listed Family Home in Killeen Tx from 2[removed], providing full-day care for multiple children daily. I created structured routines, planned developmentally appropriate activities, and supported early learning, independence, and social skills. Families from both my home daycare and my current Austin families can serve as strong references. My care style is warm, patient, and hands-on. I love planning activities that support development sensory play, crafts, outdoor time, reading, pretend play, and learning moments throughout the day. I’m confident with infants, feeding schedules, bottles, naps, toddler routines, and managing multiple children at once. I’m currently available for part-time nannying, full-time roles, evening care, date nights, weekend care, and occasional/backup care. I have CPR/First Aid certification, reliable transportation, and a flexible schedule. If you’re looking for a caring, reliable, and experienced nanny who brings structure, warmth, and peace of mind I would love to connect with your family.

“I used Quinyania 4 times now for date nights and weekend care for our two young children, and she has been wonderful every time. She’s reliable, organized, and knows how to keep toddlers engaged with activities while maintaining routines. Our kids absolutely love her, and we always come home to a calm house and happy children.”

Mary $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mary, and I’m a 20-year-old student at the University of San Diego. Although I currently attend school in California, I was born and raised in Austin, Texas, and have lived there my whole life. I’ve always loved working with children and have experience babysitting for families, as well as helping care for my younger brother while growing up. I enjoy creating a fun and safe environment for kids and am happy to help with activities, tutoring, meals, bedtime routines and more. While I’m new to the UrbanSitter app, I have been babysitting on bambino for a couple years and am excited to connect with local families and build trusting relationships. I look forward to meeting you and helping care for your little ones!

Katy 1 review
$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Austin, TX

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!

“5-stars to the MAX! Katy was so great playing with our son and keeping him safe and entertained, which both are hard to do. ”

"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)."

Eric D., dad of two
