Hi there my name is MariaElena. I am from Carolina Alta, Puerto Rico. I have been living in Gainesville, FL since I was 8 years old.  I am in the process of moving here  because my brother is a Warren Officer in the Marines and stationed here in Jacksonville NC.  I have been working in child care since the age of 13, started of  babysitting here and there until the age of 18 when I got a job in a daycare. I worked in daycare until the age of 22. I got married and started doing Nanny from home. I've been doing this now for a couple years. I feel like I love more to be a nanny because you get more of a one-on-one with a child rather than in a daycare environment there's a different ratio so you don't get that one on one. I have always wanted the parents to feel safe when they drop off their most precious gift and feel secured that I will care for them with my whole life as if they were my very own. I love what I do and I don't think that that will ever change, I feel like I can learn so much from the children and the same time they learn so much from me. Right now in Gainesville I have an in home daycare where I have eight children right now with another co-worker. The ages vary from 3 month old too a four year old. I have plenty of references that I am willing to give upon request. I like to have everybody on a schedule where they do Circle time, learning time, manipulatives, sensory,  outside time, arts and crafts, and so much more. Depending age we focus on colors, shapes, numbers, alphabet, writing, homework activities,  and any requirements for that age group. I have gotten kids ready for VPK that's a program that they have here in Gainesville I don't believe that they have it there in Jacksonville. I potty train, I can prepare meals,  I am bilingual and love to speak Spanish to the kids so that way they will learn a second language, I also know some sign language that I also try to teach them.  I am looking to add more kids because as of right now I will only have a 4 year old.  if you have any questions please feel free to email me or contact me to my phone number, thank you so much for your time and I hope to hear from you soon.

Hi everyone! My name is Nicole, and I’m 23 years old. My fiancé and I are planning to move to the Ocala area next year, and since he already works out there, I’m hoping to start establishing myself in the area as well. With that being said, I’m looking to begin babysitting or nannying for a family in the area. I absolutely love working with children of all ages! I’m especially comfortable with babies and toddlers, but I enjoy spending time with older kids just as much. While I haven’t babysat professionally through an agency, I am CPR and First Aid certified, have completed a basic babysitting training course, and have years of experience caring for younger cousins and neighborhood children. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with light housekeeping, cooking meals, tidying up, and assisting with homework as needed. I want to make life easier for busy families however I can! I would love the opportunity to support a family in need of reliable, caring help. Please feel free to message me if you’re interested. I’d love to meet you and your little ones to see if we’d be a great fit!

Hi! My name is Jocelyn, and I am an undergraduate senior at the University of Florida. Working with children has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and it truly is my passion. I have seven years of experience caring for children, including four years of paid experience, and I currently work as a pediatric medical assistant. In this position, I interact daily with children from birth to 19 years old, which has strengthened my ability to provide compassionate, attentive, and safe care. I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children grow and learn. I strive to create a positive, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel safe and encouraged to be themselves. I spent three years as a summer camp counselor working with children ages 4–13 from diverse backgrounds. This experience taught me how to manage groups, resolve conflicts, plan engaging activities, and adapt to different personalities and needs. I have been CPR and First Aid certified for about six years now! Safety is always my top priority. I am patient, creative, and dependable, with strong communication and conflict-resolution skills. I am comfortable helping with homework, keeping children engaged in activities, and maintaining a clean and organized environment. Additionally, I plan to attend medical school to become a pediatric oncologist, which reflects my long-term dedication to working with and advocating for children.

Hi there! I’m a 4th-year medical student with some extra time in the coming months, and I’d love to spend it helping families who need an extra hand. I’m currently applying to residency to become a double-certified pediatrician and internist, so being around kids is really the best part of my day. I have over two years of babysitting experience from before medical school, and throughout my clinical rotations, I’ve worked closely with children of all ages. I’m CPR-certified through my medical training, comfortable with everything from playtime to bedtime, and kids usually decide pretty quickly that we’re going to be great friends. I’ve also tutored math and other subjects, so I’m happy to help with homework. And if meals are needed, I’m a capable cook (with a small additional fee for the extra work). I’d love the chance to support your family and bring a little fun, calm, and reliability to your routine!
