Booked by 38 families in Austin, TX

Hello! My names Alexis and I’m a recent graduate from Concordia university in Austin. I was on the tennis team and love to stay active, through sports, games and exercise. I hope to share my love for outdoors and sports, but if it’s too hot outside, I have great arts and crafts skills, I grew up making masterpieces out of pipe cleaners and pompoms:)I also love to read and learn, and share those passions with the children I sit for. I have had 8+ years of experience in child care ranging from infants to young teens. I am comfortable with all ages! I love to cook so meal prepping or cooking for them is no problem:) I also have plenty of experience with animals, so if you have a furry friend that is perfectly fine!

“Very responsive and arrived on time ”

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!!

Hi parents!! I'm from Colombia, and I have been working as nanny for 4 years. I'm very sweet, affectionate, and friendly with the kids, I give so much love to them, I enjoy to play, and spend time with them, teaching and learning new experiences while I’m working with them. I have experience with kids between 4 months and 10 years old. I Really have a special connection with the kids. We can read books together, sing sweet songs, help in homeworks schools, getting the dinner, taking a shower for bedtime, or play while invent funny histories. I love running, play tennis, play guitar and cook, and I’m very clean, I don’t have problem to adapt to your rules at your home, I really care about creating a safe space for the kids and It'll works great for me

"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."

"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)."
