Find experienced babysitters in Leander, TX

Hello, I understand that finding a reliable babysitter can be a challenging task, and it's essential to choose someone who can take care of your child with love and compassion. I have been a babysitter for over two decades, and I have cared for children of all ages, from newborns to 12-year-olds. I have a deep understanding of how to organize children's activities, feed them, bathe them, and put them to bed, along with changing diapers and performing other necessary duties. In addition to babysitting, I have worked as an assistant and substitute full-time Pre-K teacher and a part-time religious education teacher. I have a clean criminal and driving record, and I am certified in Infant and Adult CPR and First Aid. I can also teach primary sign language, and I have received excellent feedback from both parents and children for my caring and compassionate nature. I understand that taking care of children is not just about feeding them and keeping them safe; it's also about providing them with a nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive. That's why I organize fun educational games, crafts, and outside activities for the children in my care. I can also run errands, grocery shopping, meal prep, and light household duties such as organizing closets, toy rooms, and basic accounting. I believe that children deserve to be treated with kindness, respect, and understanding, and I always strive to provide them with the care and attention they need. I have an Associates Degree in Business and Drama, and I am a certified professional in Education, Childhood Development, and Learning Differences. I enjoy walking, outside activities, music, and arts & crafts, and I am confident that I can provide your child with the care and attention they require. Thank you for considering me as your babysitter. I am available to interview and to answer any further questions you may have. I can provide additional references upon request. Warm Regards - Debbie

Why Do I Love Being a Sitter? I love being a sitter because it gives me the chance to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children. As a mother of one daughter who is now out of state attending dental school, I’ve always found caring for children incredibly fulfilling. Having just one child has made me treasure the opportunity to nurture and connect with kids, which is why babysitting feels so rewarding to me. Building trust with both children and parents is something I deeply value. What Experience Do I Have? I have extensive experience caring for children and also have a background in caring for the elderly, which has taught me patience, empathy, and responsibility. I’ve worked with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and I’m confident in managing their daily routines, ensuring their safety, and making their day enjoyable. What Skills and Training Do I Have? I am fluent in Spanish and enjoy incorporating it into caregiving, whether it’s helping bilingual families or teaching children basic words. While I’m still improving my English, I can communicate well and ensure clear understanding with both children and parents. I’m currently working on reactivating my CPR certification to ensure I’m always prepared. My skills include safely driving kids to and from school or activities, engaging in creative play, and assisting with light housework to help keep things running smoothly at home. I’m excited to bring dedication, care, and enthusiasm to your family!

I love working with kids. I’ve been babysitting for over six years and also gained experience caring for children at a play center. I enjoy playing, coloring, singing, dancing—anything that brings a smile to a child’s face. I recently graduated from the University of Arkansas in May, and am working towards becoming a pediatrician. Babysitting is a wonderful way for me to continue building skills that will prepare me for that career.

Hello my name is Kamryn Shoffstall, I am 26 years old and have 5 years experience working professionally within childcare facilities and 8 years babysitting. I also have nanny experience within my own home while living upon a military base and out of my current home for a year and a half. I have had extensive background checks and maintain a clean driving record. I am CPR and first aid certified. I have my own transportation and can pick up and drop off if needed. I know how hard it can be to find trustworthy people to care for your children, I am here to help you out! I know this is different but I prefer doing care out of my own home as my home is set up to accommodate more children including my own. I have a 4 year old girl and 11 month old girl. We have a kid friendly home with toys and activities for all age ranges. We do have stairs but have baby gates at top and bottom. Our upstairs is a loft like area that is full of toys, a whiteboard and learning posters. There is also a bathroom and bedroom that is not regularly used. This room could be used for naps or rest time. We have baby locked cabinets in the kitchen and a potty seat for small children.

Dear Families, My name is Michelle Banchs, and I am excited about the opportunity to provide childcare or companionship for your loved ones. As both a mother of two and someone with professional childcare experience, I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children and seniors alike feel valued and cared for. I previously worked at Bravo Arts Academy in Utah, where I gained hands-on professional experience guiding children in their growth, creativity, and daily routines. In addition, I currently volunteer in the children’s ministry at my church, which has allowed me to expand my skills working with kids of various ages in a supportive and structured setting. These experiences, along with raising my own children, have equipped me with patience, flexibility, and the ability to connect with people on a personal level. I am also passionate about offering companionship for seniors. I believe kindness, attentiveness, and trust are at the heart of quality care, and I approach each opportunity with a sense of responsibility and genuine compassion. I would love the chance to support your family and bring peace of mind by caring for your children or providing companionship for your elderly loved one. Thank you for considering me, and I look forward to the opportunity to meet and discuss how I can be of service. Warm regards, Michelle Banchs

I am a caring, responsible, and bilingual (Spanish/English) caregiver with nearly 20 years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to school-age. My background combines both professional and personal experience — as a babysitter, nanny, Au Pair, and proud mom of two wonderful boys (now 8 and 9). I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and a Master’s degree, which, while not directly related to childcare, reflect my commitment, discipline, and professionalism. Families can count on me to be reliable, organized, and attentive in every detail of their child’s care. My childcare journey started early. When my youngest brother was born, I gained hands-on experience as a teenager. In 2007, I became an Au Pair in Falls Church, VA, caring full-time for a 5-year-old girl and later a newborn baby boy. Since then, I’ve continued to provide childcare for many families, from infants as young as a few months old to energetic preschoolers and elementary-age children. As a mom myself, I understand the importance of patience, safety, and nurturing a child’s growth at every stage. I enjoy creating a warm environment with activities like reading stories, arts and crafts, outdoor play, board games, and simple educational activities that encourage creativity and development. I also love preparing healthy meals and snacks that children enjoy. I am CPR and First Aid certified and can provide excellent references upon request. Families describe me as reliable, nurturing, and fully engaged with their children. I always keep open communication with parents so they feel confident and supported. My availability is Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM. I am seeking a family who values a loving, professional caregiver to support their child’s daily routine, growth, and happiness.

I'm Perla! I'm 22, and I have been working with kids for 5 years! I worked at a mobile petting zoo, was a Dental Assistant for 2 years, and currently am working at a Settlement Home for Children! I've always enjoyed being around kids and I'm greatful I was able to move onto something that seems for me! I'm a mom to a 1 month old little boy! I'm currently on maternity leave and still juggling around if I will return to work, or take on babysitting/nannying for those who will allow me to bring my little boy when and if needed, as it's only us 2 and leaving him with family could be challenging at times. I hope to be a great fit for your little ones and exceed your needs!
