Nicole Starling has been a nanny for close to 20 years, and caring for children has truly been one of the greatest joys of her life. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Childhood Education, which has given her a strong foundation in child development and has helped shape the way she nurtures, teaches, and supports the families she works with.
She is also a wife and mom to her amazing 12-year-old son. Her family means everything to her and is a huge part of why she pushes herself to grow and evolve.
In 2019, Nicole began her fitness journey after deciding it was time to make a change for her health. She started with Zumba and other fitness routines, and through consistency and dedication, she was able to lose weight and completely transform her lifestyle. What started as something personal quickly became a passion.
In 2024, she decided to step outside of her comfort zone and become a fitness instructor. She received her rebounding teaching license through BOUNCE (also known as BOUNCEFITBODY), and it has been one of the best decisions she’s ever made. She currently teaches BOUNCE twice a week at the Dell Jewish Community Center in Austin, and she also holds classes outside of the JCC at The Dance Spot in Round Rock, TX.
It’s been a year since she began this journey, and she absolutely loves it. Seeing the confidence, strength, and joy that BOUNCE brings to people is incredibly rewarding. Helping others feel empowered through movement has become a meaningful part of her life.
