Find experienced babysitters in Austin, TX

🦋 Howdy, y’all! My name is Liz and I’m a Senior at UT Austin studying Art History. Here’s a bit about me. I grew up babysitting and working as a summer camp counselor. In 2023, I began teaching art classes to elementary school children through Young Rembrandts. Last summer, I took on a new role as a preschool teacher. Since then, I’ve continued my teaching with the addition of babysitting on the side. Both jobs have been a total joy. I’m an engaged caretaker who can play for hours, but I always make sure to sneak in some educational content. It’s really important for me to get kids moving and learning. I love to sing, dance, play make believe, read, watch movies, cook, clean, and learn about the world around us. I make sure to keep an open line of communication with parents, as they know what’s best for their child’s health and well-being more than anyone else. I’ve been CPR and First Aid certified for a while, and I recently became certified in SIDS prevention and SBS prevention. I also have a Food Handler’s License! Safety is of utmost importance to me. Trusting your child’s safety with another person is something that I do not take lightly. If you’re looking for a reliable babysitter in the Austin area, I’m your gal! Please contact me with any questions you may have. 🦋

My name is Geovana and I'm 33 years old. I am a native Portuguese speaker (from Brazil), but I also speak fluent English. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and have experience working with children of all ages, but particularly with infants and toddlers/preschoolers. I worked for several families, including 5 years for the same family. I have experience with share care as well, so I have lots of experience managing multiple babies/kids at once. I love to go to parks, museums, the zoo, etc. I am extremely responsible and have excellent references.  

I am a first year teacher off for the summer months and am looking for babysitting jobs! I have abundant experience working with kids: past summer nanny jobs, babysitting, tutoring, and working at Lifetime Fitness Child Care Center. I love building strong relationships with kids and have references to support this. Feel free to contact me if you think we would be a good match!

Hey there, families! My name is Lyra, and I hail from the land of breakfast tacos and live music, Austin, Texas. I am currently a Neuroscience and Psychology student at the UT Austin, which means I know exactly how to get inside your kids' heads! Just kidding...or am I? When it comes to children, I bring a unique blend of experience, creativity, and love. I've worked with kids of all ages - from infants to teenagers, and even those with special needs. I've coached, tutored, mentored, and played with them all! My passion is engaging kids in imaginative and creative play, especially activities that challenge them both physically and mentally. I've got a background in theatre and acting, which means I can lead the kids in a game of "let's pretend," or even act out some of their favorite stories. And let's not forget my love for reading - I'm happy to help your little ones get lost in a good book, or even write their own stories! Now, let's get down to business. Safety is my top priority, and that's why I am Health Care Provider CPR & First Aid Certified. So, if the kiddos scrape their knees or bump their heads, I'll be ready to handle it with ease. Overall, I am thrilled to bring my skills, experience, and personality to your family. Let's work together to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment for your children. I look forward to meeting you!

Hi my name is Davi, I grew up in rural Texas, but now find myself living in Austin. I’m the oldest of 3 so as I grew up, I helped my mom manage our household. I’ve been babysitting and taking care of children for almost as long. Starting the summer of my 6th grade year (2006) I stayed with 2 boys ages 8&6. Since then, I’ve babysat/nannied for many families with multiple children (and animals). The last family I nannied for had a newborn who I had most of the day and then I had her 3 brothers when they were out of school. I believe kids should not sit in front of screens all day, so I try to get them to use their imaginations as much as possible. I’m very hands on and am down for anything from play dough to baking (age appropriate of course). My mom taught Pre-K for 20+ years so I’m aware of things that kids need to do in development such as crawling before they walk, touching their toes with their opposite hand, and that they need to be able to do things at their pace, even if they make a mess, so they can learn.

Hi! My name is Emma, and I love children -- they’re our best teachers and joy-guides. 

I’ve cared for kids ranging from infants to adolescents, and worked as a swim coach for ages 1-12. 

 Currently, I’m transitioning from working a corporate job (recipe editing) to building a life of peace & health. I earned my bachelor’s in psychology from UC Davis and am now working toward my studio art degree (finally following my real dreams!). Earning ECE units is also a goal this year. Being a source of nourishment for children is one of my greatest joys. My mother is an art teacher, and my father is a music teacher. I’ve seen the profound impact that a single adult can have on a child’s life, and I deeply desire to do the same. 

I’m a visual artist & writer, and meditation is at the center of my life. I’ve studied Ayurveda at the Shakti School, and I love reading, writing poetry, singing, gardening, traveling, and being close to the earth. My loved ones tell me that I have a very maternal, warm nature. 

As a highly sensitive person, I can always sense the moods and needs of other people. I deeply understand emotions and can see into the root of behaviors. Attuning to each child comes quickly to me; I believe that simply listening with love solves most emotional & behavioral storms. 

 Please reach out to me with any questions if you feel I may be a match for your child! I hope to connect with your family soon.

Hi Parents! If you’re looking for a fun, energetic, dedicated young nanny, i’d like to introduce myself! I have looked after my two younger siblings since I was 8/yo & started babysitting outside of the house since the age of 16. I wanted to find a job where I could be supportive, creative, and be genuinely happy with what I was engaging my energy and time with. Last year I decided to take it to another step and be a live in nanny! I’ve have experience with the ages 2 to 12 years and up with three kids at a time. My interests are art, dance, nature, photography, I like contemplating them as much as I can when working; crafts, learning techniques/games, dancing & of course also learning and taking part of activities your children enjoy! Hope to hear from you soon, thank you!
