Erica Austin
$30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I'm Erica and I bring 10+ years of childcare experience to families looking for someone reliable, caring, and fun. I've taught English to children in Thailand, worked at a special needs camp in the summers, and babysat for families of all sizes. I'm CPR certified, have my own transportation, and accept Venmo or cash. I'm flexible for last-minute jobs, evenings, and overnights - but I'm ideally looking for something long-term with consistent hours. I'm a Christian and my faith is central to how I care for others - with love, patience, and integrity. I'm goofy, love crafts, pool days, music (I play piano!), and genuinely enjoy cleaning and organizing too. I'm also a huge pet lover and have a mini goldendoodle named Graham. I'd love to connect and see how I can support your family! If you'd like to connect, feel free to share your email address and I'll send over my resume. I'd also be happy to schedule a quick phone call or in-person meet!

Rachel Austin
$23 per hour for 1 child

Hi there, I’m Rachel! I’m a 29-year-old nanny based in Austin, where I live with my fiancé and our dog. I have a deep love for art, nature, and travel—but working with children has always been my greatest passion. I find childcare incredibly rewarding and strive to provide a nurturing, engaging, and supportive environment for every child in my care. With over 10 years of professional experience, including more than 3 years of specialized infant care, I’ve worked with children of all ages in a variety of settings. I spent two years as a Montessori teacher, caring for infants (ages 2–18 months) and children up to 13 years old. Currently, I nanny for a family with a 4-month-old and a 4-year-old, and I also provide weekend care for six families I’ve worked with consistently over the past two years. I’m confident caring for multiple children and have experience managing up to four at once. My background also includes working as a summer camp director, an after-school archery coach, and a pediatric dental assistant—all roles that have strengthened my ability to connect with kids and keep them safe, engaged, and having fun. I follow a positive guidance philosophy rooted in empathy, connection, and healthy boundaries. I’m experienced with baby-led weaning, early potty training, and teaching infants basic ASL. I’m certified in infant CPR and first aid, and have completed over 25 hours of training in child development, emergency preparedness, food safety, and Montessori education. I’m reliable, have my own transportation, and am happy to assist with household management and tidying up after the children. I’m currently seeking a long-term weekday nanny position (6 months to 1 year). I’m available to start part-time at the end of June and transition to full-time in July. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, I’d love to connect! I’m happy to provide my resume and references upon request. Thanks so much for your consideration

"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
