About Nicole

Experience: 20 yrs

With almost 20 years of experience as a babysitter, nanny, house manager, tutor, and teacher, I am an enthusiastic, organized, present, and loving caregiver. I love to take kids on adventures like the park, playground, museums and use those outings as an educational experience. I'm familiar with developmental milestones and know how to keep babies and toddlers engaged. Always asking children how I can make the situation better rather than trying to quiet them, I'm patient & gentle with an upset child, excellent at redirecting children in a nurturing way. I want to validate children's emotions & not squander their self-expression. I have experience supporting queer and trans children. I love creative activities including cooking & crafting and I am passionate about reading. I am clean, organized, a healthy cook & can help with errands etc.

Nicole was the best! She was our first hired babysitter through Care.com and she made the whole process really easy. Right from the get go she was responsive, mature, responsible and most importantly confident and kind caring for our 8 month old. She's a real pro and would definitely use her again the next time we're in Austin!
