A little bit about me
I am a college graduate with the hopes of attending medical school in the future. Until then, I am looking to do something else I am deeply passionate about- caring for children and families. I have more than six years of paid childcare experience. I have travelled with families, participated in long-term placements, and fulfilled short term needs as well.
My family has six children, of which I am the second oldest. Our lively home, and my position in the lineup, made childcare a passion of mine from the start! I work with children of all ages and have a clean driving history.
I enjoy coordinating activities, encouraging movement over screens, and have a deep heart for learning.
I recognize the privilege that exists in stepping into your family's home and promise to do so with the utmost respect and responsibility.

A little bit about me
I am a registered nurse in Mexico, I just arrived in Austin, I want to give you the best care with my knowledge and experience. I like to work taking care of children because it is what I like the most, I have a lot of time taking care of babies, children and adults, with a prepared treatment, I am friendly and very calm. I hope to have the opportunity to help a family.
My only weakness for now is that I speak little English but I am learning it.
I am good at preparing food and I can learn if your food is different from what I know how to make. I can help tidy up the house if time allows and if you need it.

A little bit about me
Hello,
I would like to thank you for taking the time to consider me as an extension within your family. My work experience is extensive as I have owned and operated my own daycare in Buffalo, NY where I also received newborn care specialist experience. I’ve worked as an educator for grades K-8 where I would also specialize as a Math and Reading interventionist. I have implemented ASL Level 1-3 as a secondary language for children of all ages. My work experience is also extensive working with those with disabilities with a focus on those with autism. I find that meeting children where they are in life makes for an easy transition to gain trust which then improves growth in their social, emotional, and even academic lives. Lastly, just for your reference, if care is needed outside of the home I am more than capable of providing that need only if a nanny vehicle is provided. Making the choice to add me as an extension to your family will be an overall improvement for all parties involved.

I take a gentle parenting approach with an emphasis on fostering emotional growth. I’m well versed in 2-4 years old developmental milestones, with a specialty in potty training, and can handle ages 0-6.

A little bit about me
Hi families! I’m Sarah and I’m a fun-loving and personable babysitter! Caring for three sweet, wild boys (all under the age of 6) taught me how to figure out solutions to situations I never thought I’d be in. I create a warm and nurturing environment based off each child’s needs, to make sure they’ll thrive in it. I connect with kids by adapting to their individual personalities and needs. Whether it’s imaginative play, helping with homework, or organizing fun activities, I am committed to giving them a safe, fun, and productive environment. I enjoy building relationships with both kids and parents alike. I understand the importance of the responsibility in being given snd don’t take that lightly. ! ‘m always going to go the extra mile to provide the best possible care for your kiddos.
If you're looking for a reliable and energetic babysitter who will care for and respect your kid(s), let’s chat about how I can help meet your family's needs!
