Booked by 2 families in Elgin, TX

My name is Grace I am a nursing major at Austin Community College in Austin, TX in hopes of becoming a labor and delivery nurse, and am currently a Birth and Postpartum Doula in training! I am an outgoing, fun, detail oriented and dedicated person. I attribute these skills to dancing, which I have been involved in since I was a toddler, to my high school drill team. I am the oldest of 5 kids and have 6+ years of experience babysitting and nannying, and am a mother myself. I have an open and flexible schedule, which I can fit a part-time or full-time position into. I have a passion for caring for and loving children of all ages- and becoming a part of the family! I also love animals. I am CPR and AED certified! I have references upon request, and can pass a background check if needed. I have a 1 year old son who I plan to bring along with me to care for your family. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!

“Grace was wonderful, helped us out in a pinch when another sitter cancelled. Her sweet little boy played with our girls and they keep asking when they can come back. It was a busy week and my house was a *mess* - Grace tidied a bit and got the girls to clean up their play areas. Nominating her for sainthood! Grace would be a fantastic nanny or sitter!”

Maria $20 per hour for 1 child

I'd describe my personality as Positive, Organized, and adaptable I like working with kids because of their curiosity and energy. Helping kids build their confidence, develop a positive mindset, and supporting them is rewarding to me. As a psychology major, I am passionate about youth development! I started working with kids when I was 13 years old. I used to be a dance teacher up until the age of 18. I also started babysitting during that time. I have also worked in a clinic for kids who need physical, occupational, and speech therapy. I have also worked on dance summer camps and at Neuron Garage Growth Mindset Camp! In my spare time, I like to do yoga, homework, and hang out with friends! One thing you should know about me is I am in my 3rd year of college as psychology major. I also speak Spanish. My skills include calming a meltdown. I am a good emotional support. I have CPR training.

"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)."
