Veronica $25 per hour for 1 child

I have 10 years of experience. I'm a loving, caring person, very outdoorsy, always finding creative ways to entertain and engage kiddos in different activities to help develop their motor and cognitive skills according to their age. I'm very reliable, I love caring for kids and have amazing references from previous families!

Booked by 95 families in Elgin, TX

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!”

Hi there, my name is Yvonne. I speak both English and Spanish. I've worked with kids between the ages of 6 months-18 years old. *I am CPR/First Aid Certified through 08/2028 I like to spend my days reading, cross-stitching, and hanging out with my family. I love spending time outdoors playing all types of sports, coloring, painting, and other creative (and messy) activities! I'm very empathetic and caring, especially with those I love. My current aspiration is to continue to teach children how to be the best versions of themselves and foster their creativity!

Booked by 22 families in Elgin, TX

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 ”
