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!

Hello Families!!! I am Laura!! I am an enthusiastic girl who loves children, animals, nature, travel, and sports. I am bilingual in Spanish and English. I have been working with children since I was in high school where I volunteered in a school. In college, I worked in a day care center for 4 years and then I become an RBT for 3 years. In this last job, I've worked with children with autism. I’m currently doing my master in occupational therapy. For the past year, I have been working with two children with disabilities, one with Rhett Syndrome and the other one with Batten disease. I love helping and taking care of others. I am exited to meet your little ones. I am available during the weekdays in the afternoons except Fridays that I can do all day.

Hi there! My name is Sophia, and I have an extensive background working with children of all ages in various settings. I am currently a Court-Appointed Special Advocate (CASA). I partner with the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services and CPS to advocate for the best interests of children in the foster care system. My current case includes 4 siblings ages 10-17. On weekends, I work at local churches providing Sunday daycare to infants, toddlers, pre-K, and elementary school children.

Since then, I have taken on childcare opportunities for family, friends, and clients of SitterCity (families), SitterTree (churches), KiddieCorp (corporate conferences). I have a love for reading, arts and crafts, imaginative play, and listening to little ones that simply want an audience for their wildest stories and ideas. Some of my favorite activities include nature walk BINGO with the task of finding specific items along our route, acting out our favorite books or movies complete with costumes if we can, and building something together like LEGOs, a fort, etc. When I'm not working with kiddos, I’m a Director at a nonprofit helping women in LATAM become homeowners and build generational wealth.

Howdy! I am a Licensed Specialist in School Psychology with a passion for working with children and ensuring adequate child development. I have over 10 years of experience babysitting/nannying. I believe that kids should be able to express themselves creatively and physically (as in not stay in the house all day). English is my first language, but I can speak and understand basic Spanish as well. As for my caregiving philosophy, it mostly depends on the parents. My mission is to ensure that the child's needs are always met. I am quite active and love spending time outside and/or playing games. I pride myself on being creative and accommodating, and have yet to meet a kiddo that would say different :). Additionally, I have experience working with newborns, toddlers, and teens. I also have experience working with kids that have developmental delay and/or Autism. I am CPR, First Aid, and AED certified. I am also comfortable with animals (dogs, cats, birds, etc.)

I’m a very creative person and I love a good laugh! I spent a month as a counselor at Camp Olympia the summer of 2021! I also have experience in children’s healthcare as a sub/student worker at LSU’s daycare, and to this day it’s one of the things I loved doing the most. I recently worked at a physical therapy clinic which has provided me with an amazing and educational experience. I hope to be the perfect sitter for you and your family!

I have always enjoyed working with children which is essentially why I chose to pursue a degree in early childhood education. I am currently completing my last year at TXST university, while working on my teacher's certification as well. I am very patient and kind when working with any child. I continuously look for ways to educate children while still maintaining a sense of being in a fun and safe environment. I have plenty of energy, therefore I am more than equipped to handle whatever situations I may encounter. I always maintain a sense of respect for the parents I work for and make sure to have a secure sense of faith that I will adequately care for their children. I make sure that my time spent with any child is always engaging and educational to the best of my ability. I am CPR and first aid certified for children of all ages. I know how to deal with situations of distress with children and always maintain a sense of security and safety in order to ensure that any child I am caring for is aware that they are in a safe environment at all times.
