We are about to move to Steiner Ranch and will be looking for childcare for our 18 month old baby. Can anyone recommend any good place? I am also open to hiring a nanny—any good ideas on how to find a good one?

What is the going rate for childcare cost in Austin?? (for a nanny or daycare center)

You may want to try Courtyard by River Place.

There is a Children's Courtyard in River Place as well as a Primrose Preschool. I believe a Children's Center of Austin opened up recently in Steiner; there is also one at Jester and 2222.
If you're interested in hiring a nanny I'd suggest going to Mommy Mixer :: The Original Babysitter Network Event and attending a local Mommy Mixer. It is a meet and greet for moms and prospective nannies/babysitters (who are normally college students looking for full or part time work) and you get a whole book of resumes for the entrance fee. Right now the going rate for nannies is somehwere around $12 ranging from $10 to $15.

Good luck.

I believe most of the top accredited daycares are charging somewhere in the neighborhood of $850/month for toddlers and $950/month for infants. There is some variation at some places depending on how long the child will be at daycare. There are some very good places around that charge significantly less, but do not go through the top level accreditation.

Smile Nanny Available!

Hi, I read your post and I am actually a live-in nanny for a 9 month old girl here in Steiner Ranch and we are looking for another family that might be interested in doing a nanny share. We have a playroom all set up for the kids... I have over 8 years experience working with children of all ages, primarily newborns/infants/toddlers... CPR and First Aid certified. If you would like to talk further feel free to send me an email I'd be more than happy to send you my resume and discuss details with you!
