Nhi $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Nhi! I’m an Early Childhood Education major at UT Austin with a passion for working with children. I have a little sister with Autism in Houston, whom I miss dearly, and she has inspired my patience and dedication to childcare. I currently work at Kumon, where I tutor children ages 2-6, and I can implement Kumon material if parents are interested. Babysitting is a meaningful way for me to connect with families while making a positive impact. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping and meal preparation to make things a little easier for you. Looking forward to the opportunity to care for your little one!

$20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Austin, TX

Hi! My name is Anna, I am a college student at UT Austin in my junior year of college. I absolutely adore children and I have worked as a babysitter throughout high school and college in various capacities. I have experience with all ages, and have worked as a regular babysitter for a child from age 5 to 9. Along with babysitting, I have worked as a tutor for elementary and middle-school aged children, a soccer coach for toddlers (aged 3 to 5), and a camp counselor for pre-teens. A little about me: I am studying environmental science in college with the goal of eventually going to law school to pursue environmental law. I am originally from Seattle, and come from a family of 3 brothers (1 younger, 2 older) who are my best friends. Some of my interests include yoga, hiking, reading, and music. I am available for a broad-range of work, and am happy to cook and clean as needed. I have reliable transportation, but do not have my own car here in Austin so I am unable to regularly transport kids in my own vehicle.

Kristine $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I think kids are some of the most creative, imaginative, endearing humans out there and love spending time with them. They make the world so much brighter in these hard days! I am 28 years old and a Registered Nurse by training (CPR/BLS/ACLS certified). I am currently taking some time off after a busy year during the pandemic and looking for the occasional babysitting/date night job! I am training to be a birth and postpartum doula and am very comfortable taking care of newborns/infants (have a two year old niece that I have babysat overnight and many friends with newborns and toddlers). I was also a camp counselor for 3 years throughout college and worked with kids ages 7-17.

Estefani $22 per hour for 1 child

I have a lifelong affinity for children, and have focused my career on providing safe and nurturing environments for them. I am currently pursuing a degree in Psychology, with an eventual goal of specializing in Child Psychology. As the oldest sibling of three, I have personally worked with children for many years, and have worked in this field professionally for the last three years. My background focuses on children from 7 months to 11 years of age, and I am particularly skilled with toddlers, as I was an assistant teacher in daycares and provided care for one family's toddler for over a year.
