My name is Colleen. I am 32, college educated (BS in Marketing from Penn State University), and relocating from Brooklyn to San Antonio in August. Before living and working as a nanny in NY, I worked for 6 years in various roles for a fortune 500 company. I have 10+ years of experience nannying and babysitting for a large number of families; including those with infants, multiples, and children with disabilities. Through prior experience as a lifeguard, I was previously certified in both CPR and first aid with the Red Cross-which I am happy to get renewed if requested. For the past 3 years, I have worked FT for a family with 2 elementary aged children and one infant (now toddler). Aside from basic childcare, I also help manage appointments, oversee virtual schooling, schedule and supervise weekly activities, plan vacations, and otherwise manage any household duties that may arise. My base rate for childcare is $20/hr, non-negotiable. Additional responsibilities outside of childcare will incur additional fees. Please reach out if you think I’d be a good fit for your family!

Y'all, immediately hire Colleen. SO much energy, total self-starter, spent 5 hours at Legoland w/my rambunctious little guy, came back that night and the next day; good communication; totally trustworthy. I checked her NY references too & they were glowing. Only wish we LIVED in San Antonio so we could hang w/Colleen more often. My son didn't even want to be with me -- was so eager for Colleen to come back. Five stars!

Hi, I’m Kate! A bilingual babysitter from San Antonio, with several years experience caring for children of all ages, including infants and kids with special needs. I’m currently studying to become a nurse at San Antonio College, after graduating high school early. My passion for caregiving runs deep. I know how difficult it can be to leave your kiddos in the care of someone else, so I do my best to create an environment where everyone feels safe, supported, and respected. My background working with special needs kiddos has taught me to be patient, empathetic, attentive, and adaptable–qualities I bring to every family I work with. I also have hands-on experience as a caregiver for a medically complex patient, so I understand the importance of trust and clear communication. I love engaging with kids through hands-on activities such as playing and learning, and tend to limit screen time unless otherwise requested by parents. My goal is always to meet your family’s unique needs and ensure your kiddos are safe, happy, and well cared for. My rate doesn’t increase by number of children unless there are more than 3, then I go up by $5 an hour, per kiddo. I believe childcare shouldn’t break the bank to ensure your kids are safe and cared for while you get things done. Thank you so much for considering my application, and I hope to be in contact with you soon!

Hi, my name is Kayla! I’m 25 years old and from San Antonio. I’ve been working as a nanny for the past 7 years and have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teens. Alongside nannying, I also serve as a children’s Sunday school teacher and as a member of the worship team at my church, which has given me even more opportunities to guide and encourage kids in positive ways. Caring for children is truly an honor, and I take great joy in creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. Families describe me as responsible, reliable, and passionate about what I do. I love engaging kids in activities like outdoor play, music, reading, and arts & crafts — anything that lets their creativity and personality shine! I’m CPR certified, comfortable with pets, and perfectly fine with cameras in the home. Most importantly, I’m committed to building a relationship of trust and care with every family I meet. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and be a supportive part of your child’s growth and happiness. Blessings, Kayla

Ms. Stella is a wonderful person and an exceptional nanny. We started with her when our daughter was just 5 months old, and now she is 3 years old. We truly could not have chosen a better person to care for our child. Ms. Stella has become, and always will be, part of our family. She is incredibly reliable and has always treated our daughter as if she were her own granddaughter. She loves and spoils her just like a grandmother would, which has meant so much to us. She has always been willing to work with our schedule and help with anything we needed. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for our daughter gave us complete peace of mind every day. We could not have asked for a better person to care for our daughter, and we are so grateful for everything she has done for our family.

Marianna is a very polite and well mannered sitter. She is very easy to talk to and to communicate what your needs are. My family hired her to look after our little ones for 5 hours while we did some tasks that required our full attention and she left quite an impression on both children. She was very active in playing with both our boys and read to the older one. She managed to get my eldest out of his shell, who is very shy, and he played with her for hours. They read, they played with toys, they chatted. She was always engaged with our children. She is bilingual, so that is a plus for bilingual homes. We highly recommend her. We will be working with her in the future.

Hi! I’m Marian, and I’ve been caring for children since I was 10 and am the oldest sibling in my family. Several years of caring for different children has taught me patience, responsibility, creativity, and how to stay calm under pressure. On top of paid childcare I have several years of experience of volunteering with childcare programs and working with several children at once from early infancy through the preteen years. I also have experience supporting children with special needs with patience, care, and encouragement. I’m first aid trained, reliable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I love creating a safe, positive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel supported. I’m also comfortable with cooking, cleaning, pet care, and taking kids on outings if that’s what is needed from me.

Marian was very prompt at communicating, arrived on time, and was able to handle everything asked of her. We had two kids, a 6 year old boy and a 3 year old girl, that she was watching for us. No issues between her or the kids they got along fine. Would be more than happy to use her again if needed. I was very pleased with how well everything turned out as finding someone reliable and competent isn’t always easy but Marian was absolutely both.
