Hi - My name is Kara! I’m 29 years old and I've been working with kids since I was 16 and absolutely love it. I’ve been in a nanny-share since 2021 and just recently said goodbye to my little ones who started preschool. I took care of them since they were three months old and now they are two and half years old. I’m now in a new nanny-share and taking care of a four month old and a five month old. I love being a nanny but recently have missed the babysitting experience. I love coloring, puzzles, playing pretend, and watching Disney movies with the kiddos. * at this time I’m currently not taking on any new families.
“She was extremely communicative and very sweet, highly recommend!”
I moved to Austin in 2019 from the Northeast. Prior to my relocation, I was a teacher (two/three year olds) at a Private Preschool in New Jersey for more than 13 years. I am a certified infant/toddler teacher and have also taught English as a Second Language in a public elementary school system. Additionally, I have worked for many years as a reading/writing tutor and a teacher of theatre arts to elementary and middle school students. I have numerous years of experience working with children, ages newborn to late teens. In addition, I have raised three children (two grown, one teenaged). I am well versed in developmental milestones and my specific area of expertise is working with children who have different learning capabilities, notably children on the spectrum and/or with developmental delays. I continue to work in Austin as a preschool teacher and tutor for elementary school children. In addition, I run neurodiversity consulting programs and staff development sessions for local private schools. Because of my career in teaching, I am required to renew my certification in CPR and First Aid every two years and I annually accrue 40 plus hours of developmental/industry standards training. I am fully vaccinated (including all COVID vaccines.) I adore engaging with children, am trustworthy, dependable and timely. I am looking forward to meeting you and your children!
“Kristin was really great with our kids! Warm and competent, her childcare experience and professionalism is really evident. ”
Hi all! I am a native austinite who just recently moved back to the area. I have been babysitting/ nannying off and on since I was a teenager. I love taking care of children; specifically getting to know their different personalities, likes, and dislikes, and encouraging their imagination as much as possible. Please feel free to ask me any questions! Thank you! : ) ***CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING REQUESTS AT THIS TIME***
Hi! I’m Erica, a UT Austin graduate with a degree in education and over six years of babysitting experience. I taught for a year and now work in educational technology sales, where I continue supporting educators and teachers. My experience includes three years in an after-school program, working with children from Pre-K through sixth grade. I also serve in my church’s student ministry with middle and high school students and occasionally help with infants through fifth grade. I enjoy helping with homework, planning fun art activities, and getting to know each child’s interests. My goal is to create a safe, caring, and engaging environment where kids feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving them in my care. I’d love to connect and learn more about your family!
“Nice, asked right questions and super sweet to kids ”
Howdy! My name is Madison (but I go by Maddi as well, whichever you prefer). I am an environmental scientist and researcher by trade but engage in care giving on the side. A little bit about me: I am the eldest daughter among 6 siblings. As such, I have plenty of practical experience in addition to my years of babysitting while getting my undergraduate and graduate degrees. Regarding my personality and hobbies, I love music, art, learning, and outdoor recreation. I am a multi-instrumentalist musician - I can sing and play the guitar, piano, and ukelele. I listen to a lot of music on the daily and I like to play, listen, and dance to music with the kids I babysit. I enjoy getting in touch with my creative side as much as I can. I love painting, drawing, making random crafts. I also really enjoy reading, going to the library, and going outside whenever I get the chance. Depending on the age of your kids, I am able to help with homework and school work, (particularly with science, english, history, and some lower level maths). I like to engage kids in fun activities and see tv, cell phone usage, and other electronics as more of last resort entertainment methods. I try to stay off of my phone as much as possible when I'm babysitting so that I’m able to be present and engaged. I find that this allows kids to have more fun and also be more present with me. I drive a fully insured, completely up-to-date on maintenance 2021 Toyota Rav4, so I'm able to drop off/pick up kids from school and/or other activities in my own vehicle. I am also comfortable driving other SUVs, trucks, and sedan vehicles as well, so whatever works best for you works for me! I have a spotless driving record and take car safety extremely seriously. I am mainly looking for one-off opportunities and am able to do overnight stays during the week and weekends as well. Thanks for taking the time to read this! I look forward to meeting with you and your little ones!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
