Nanny Shares in Austin, TX

The White Family

The Woodlands, Austin$10/hr | 1 kid

My husband and I have both been furloughed since March, and have thus been watching our baby girl. Now we are looking for jobs, and needing to also look into child care again. Though we would give this nanny share a shot as I like the idea of having my LO socializing around other kids, but not too many. She is very sweet and quick with a smile.

The Bearden Family

Austin$18/hr | 1 kid

I am having a baby in March and I am just looking into options as I go back to work part-time

The Kulczyk Family

& Andrea Eldridge

Austin$10/hr | 1 kid

We have a sweet and fun 15 month old named Owen. We're seeking another family to join our existing nanny-share. We're taking covid seriously and would be a great fit if you are too.

We can host or switch off. Our nanny is WONDERFUL. She's a career childcare professional and fosters play-based learning.

I am a social worker and my husband works in early childhood intervention. We have a 3-year-old daughter who was in daycare, pre-pandemic. Since March, we’ve had an amazing nanny who is kind, creative, and extremely reliable. Our nanny loves to teach and makes every day educational for our daughter.
We're interested in a nanny share with another family who has a 2-4 year old child from 8am-12:30pm, M-F.

The Cloutier Family

South Austin, Austin$40/hr | 1 kid

My husband and I are both in IT sales and work standard Monday - Friday 8 - 5 hours. We have some flexibility with hours and working from home but still looking for someone to be at home with our new son during the day while we are working. Carter is only a month old right now and we won't need someone to start until December (which would be part time until January 2021).
