Find a wedding babysitter in Manchaca, TX

I'm a very patient, kind and loving person. I can definitely say I do get attached to my kids/families I’ve to worked with. I’m a big outdoors person. Love being active and go out with the kiddos, to playgrounds & libraries for example. I’ve been a nanny/babysitting for almost 8 years now and I have been a supportive teacher in the past as well. I have experience with kids from 4 months on till up to 12/13 years old. One of my longest experiences as a nanny was working with 2 boys for 3 years - which the youngest is a sweet boy that has autism. My most recent experience that’s coming to an end has also been an almost 3 years with them. It started with a 13 month old that is now almost 4. But then he had a baby sister that I started caring for when she was 4 months old and will be turning 2 soon and both will be in school at that point and they won’t be needing me for my full time hours anymore. Which is the only reason we’re ending our work relationship and I’m now looking for a new family to work for.

I retired 6 years ago and moved to Austin after living in Dallas for 35 years. I raised 4 kids, 3 and under while working full time and maintaining my sanity ;-) My kids are all grown and now I have two grandkids 4 and 10 months here that I help out with when needed. My 4 year old grandson spends the night with me and is always asking to come over to my place. I also tutor math at one of the middle schools. I have hosted 9 international exchange students for a year of high school and still involved in the program though I don’t host any longer. I speak passable Spanish as well. I learned when raising my family how to be flexible, organized, creative and loving. I like to have fun and interact with my grandkids. We don’t watch a lot of television but instead play age appropriate games that are fun and interactive. I can bring the same fun, loving experience to you.

I myself am a new mom! After years in corporate business I was laid off and turned to nannying for part time income during my transition. During that time I fell in love with nannying and it inspired me to start my own family. Now as I look into getting back into some part time work I would love to continue to help families. In addition to my passion for childcare,I am an active volunteer with Austin Angels providing caregiver support to foster children. I am CPR and First Aid certified for adults, children, and infants. I am also a certified Respite Caregiver with the State of Texas. I have completed trainings and a federal background check through the Department of Child Services. You can trust I will prioritize your child's safety and care. I am friendly, outgoing, and kind. I am gentle and playful in my interactions with all little ones. I love animals and also have 2 dogs that I care for. I've fostered several animals and am comfortable around different breeds and ages. I am trustworthy, helpful, and flexible with my ability to help your family.

I am a mother of four (kids range from 9 to 19 in our house) and I've worked for the last 8 years as a postpartum doula supporting babies and mothers as the family expands and transforms.

I enjoy building relationships with children, finding it fulfilling to help them learn and grow. finding the work fun and rewarding I speak Spanish as my first language and English as my second. I study photography and I also love pets
