As a nanny I have over 10 years experience. I have cared for infants to pre-teens. I have worked as many as twenty to forty hours per week. I also have week nights and weekends available for date nights. Enjoy story time, arts and crafts, and walks to park. Although my main duty would be childcare I do not have any objections to light housekeeping chores. I have references, CPR/First Aid Child, Childcare certification, Background checked and reliable transportation. I bring a "Nanny" bag that is filled with age appropriate books, games and crafts. Please contact me if you are interested in meeting. Thank you, Linda Holley

Hi. My name is Amada, I'm from Brazil and I've been living in Florida for 2 years with my husband, who has an MBA here in Lakeland. I've always loved children. I've taken care of many cousins who are younger than me, and one day I dream of being a mother. Because I'm very close to children, I decided to work as a babysitter as soon as I arrived in the United States. I've worked for 3 families here in the city with children ranging from 2 to 10 years old. I really enjoy playing, talking and taking care of them. I have my own vehicle, so I can also pick the children up from school or take them to appointments. I also have very flexible hours. :)

Hi I am a retired dental hygienist after working 30 yrs in the same office. I have 4 kids and 8 grandkids. am available for week days and date nights and overnights. .I was working for a.vascular surgeon and neurologist taking care of there 18 mo old..started when she was 3 mo but grandma retired and wanted to watch the baby. I was watching a 3 yr.old little girl in Valrico 5 days a week ..started full time when she was 4 mo old but she is going to montessori full time so my job ended . I was working 4 days a week for a couple in Valrico taking care of a 2 yr old( I started when she was 3 mo) and 7 and 8 yr old. She is now enrolled in a Montessori school .l And I was working full time in Tampa watching a yr old but that ended because he is going to the same school as his brother.Previous to that I was working for 2 lawyers who have a 4 mo old and a 2.5 yr old. but they moved to Tallahasee. And I also worked for a couple in Plant City who have a 2.5 yr old son during the week. I am cpr certified and do not have a criminal background.. I love children and when I retired from the dental profession I knew I wanted day care to be my next profession.. I live in Lakeland but I don't mind driving 45 min to an hr away. I did it for 30 yrs and in the snow!! I have a 2012 Toyota prius and it's great on gas and I have a clean driving record. I devote my whole time to the child and children. Gina aka Norma Jean. I have a copy of my background report and drivers report that I had done.

Marlene brought the stabilization to home we needed after a series of immature au pairs. We don't know what we'd do without her... she's been a blessing and our very own Mary Poppins.

We love having Ms. Jasmyne come babysit for us! Our 5 yr old son gets excited when we tell him she will be coming over. She is responsive through text, arrives early, asks GREAT and pertinent questions, and takes notes on our routines and the do's/don'ts for that evening which helps for future times. She often does more than we expect or ask, and we come home to a summary of the night's events. She demonstrates good judgement of when to make executive decisions versus reach out to us via text for clarification (if you are okay with being contacted). She's great with all our animals and has even brought them treats! I can't recommend her enough!

I genuinely enjoy being around kids and creating a fun but safe environment for them. I have experience working in a daycare and also currently work as a Patient Care Assistant, which has taught me a lot about responsibility, patience, and staying calm under pressure. I’m very attentive, organized, and love keeping kids engaged with activities while making sure they’re safe and cared for.
