I’m an Austin, TX native and am returning after 6 months of travelling after resigning from my corporate job in healthcare technology. I’m hoping to make some extra income while I’m still applying and interviewing for my next corporate gig. I love hanging out and caretaking for kiddos of all ages (6 months - 13 years old)! I’ve been helping take care of my nephews (now 3 & 5 years old) since they were infants - my sister says I do a great job and my nephews still seem to like me :).

I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable sitter with experience caring for children and working as a CNA. My CNA experience has taught me to be patient, attentive, safety-focused, and comfortable providing hands-on care. I understand the importance of keeping children safe, comfortable, and engaged. I’m happy to help with meals, activities, playtime, routines, and keeping their space tidy. My goal is to give parents peace of mind while making sure their little ones feel happy, safe, and well cared for.

Hello, my name is Anaika. I am a reliable and attentive babysitter dedicated to providing a safe, positive, and nurturing environment for children. I take pride in being patient, organized, and responsive to each child’s needs, while maintaining open communication with parents to ensure the best care possible. I enjoy babysitting because I genuinely care about children and love providing a safe and loving space where they can feel comfortable, understood, and valued. From a parent, I expect clear communication about their child’s routine, needs, and expectations. This includes important details such as schedules, house rules, emergency contacts, allergies, and any specific instructions. I also appreciate mutual respect, trust, and open communication so I can provide the best care possible and ensure the child’s safety and comfort.
