Hi! My name is Teresa. I’m originally from New York and I moved to Austin in 2019, now living with my boyfriend and our two fur babies. I'm a dedicated and nurturing caregiver with over 20 years of babysitting and nannying experience. My journey began with caring for my younger sister, neighbors, and cousins, and it quickly turned into a lifelong passion for supporting families and helping children grow in a safe, loving environment. Throughout college, I worked as a part-time nanny for a toddler and a newborn, gaining hands-on experience with early childhood development and infant care. I then had the joy of caring for three energetic and fun-loving boys (ages 12, 10, and 8), balancing housework help, playtime, and busy schedules for a widowed, single dad. For the past 7 seven years, I've been the consistent sitter for a wonderful family with two children outside of my full-time Read more job - now 7 and 3 - building a strong bond as they've grown. I'm also a proud aunt to three beautiful girls (ages 6, 4, and 2). I love what I do because I genuinely enjoy being part of a child's world - whether we're doing crafts, playing outside, reading stories, or just talking about their day. I bring patience, creativity, and a calm presence to every home I work in. Families know me as dependable, attentive, and always ready to go the extra mile to keep kids happy, safe, and engaged. Whether you need a reliable date night sitter or ongoing support, I'd love to be part of your village (because we all know it takes one!)
