Hello, I’m Lauren! I’m from Missouri originally but I moved to Los Angeles in 2017 where I worked as a nanny for many years. I just recently relocated to Austin! I have babysat for families with kids of all ages & watched multiple children at a time. My passion is singing, but I love children. I have been babysitting since i was 13 years old. I have volunteered in the childrens program at my church, volunteered at a daycare, and have babysat for multiple different families over the years. They were always happy to have me! I love to be a part of helping children grow and learn! I am a very creative person and great when it comes to creating children’s activities and will be happy to accommodate any suggestions you might have while sitting your child/children! I would love to meet your babies!!

Hello! My name is Kamryn! I have been working with children for 11 years! I have experience helping with childcare for local families, youth camps, special events and Fitness centers. I have experience working as an assistant teacher at a homeschool co-op called “Natureversity”. I am teach meditation, yoga and am a writer. I am currently working on building my online wellness business and nannying helps support my income along the way. My yoga practice has taught me how to live "off the yoga mat" and has brought integrity and heartfelt compassion into each aspect of my life. I am calm, responsible and intuitive. My favorite thing about child-care is how I much I am able to learn from the children and the families. Kids inspire me to live in the present moment. It is important to me that the kids feel comfortable and safe with me. I am confident and experienced with meals, and overnight care for the right family. In working with me, you can expect heart-felt engagement and a calm presence. ✨🙏

Kamryn was great, definitely added to our top sitters list.

"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)."
