Hello, My name is Lisa Carter and I live in the lovely Destin area. I have had the opportunity to work as a Preschool Lead Teacher for a number of years and presently hold six (6) college credits in Early Childhood Education with an additional credit in Children’s Art. My training and experience with children of various ages comes not only from working within the preschool field but also as a Therapeutic Respite worker, providing dedicated assistance to children with behavioral and emotional challenges. I’ve also had the privilege of playing an instrumental part in the lives of many children as a personal Nanny providing loving care, safety, and a most thriving environment, while presenting myself as a positive role model for younger ones. I hope my professional background is a match for your need and family. Thank you kindly for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hey there! My name is Oriana. I'm an experienced, nurturing, and dependable babysitter with a passion for providing a comforting and welcoming environment for children. I come from a diverse background and am fluent in English and Spanish. Family means everything to me, that's why I'm so passionate about babysitting because it allows me the opportunity to make a positive impact in children’s lives and contribute to their well-being. It also contributes to my own personal growth as learning from and caring for others can surprisingly help us understand and care for ourselves better. I hold a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in English. This has helped me recognize the importance of child development stages, including emotional and social learning. I strive to create a compassionate and supportive atmosphere, allowing children the space to feel comfortable sharing their emotions and needs. I aim to foster their growth as individuals, helping them navigate the ups and downs of everyday life with resilience and confidence. With a creative and imaginative mindset, I love engaging kids in educational and entertaining activities such as arts and crafts, reading, storytelling, movement and dance, imaginative play, and helping make homework time an enjoyable and stimulating experience. I am patient, adaptable, and adept at handling various situations that may arise when caring for children. Safety is always my top priority which is why I will be renewing my Adult and Pediatric First AID/CPR certification this month. I emphasize building strong relationships with both children and parents as I believe open and clear communication are key in building trust. I recognize and celebrate the individuality of every child. I take the time to understand the child’s personality, interests, and preferences in order to provide personalized care and support. I have experience working with children of various ages and temperaments, which has taught me the importance of tailoring my approach to suit each child’s needs. I also pay close attention to parents’ instructions and guidelines; making sure to understand their expectations regarding things like meal prep, bedtime routines, screen time and any specific rules they’ve set. I am here to provide reliable and trustworthy care for your little ones, ensuring their well-being and happiness. Let's create a positive and enjoyable experience for your family! My schedule is flexible so please feel free to reach out.

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy working with kids and being someone they feel safe, comfortable, and happy around. Watching children learn, grow, and gain confidence is incredibly rewarding to me, and I take pride in creating a fun, nurturing, and supportive environment for them. I have extensive childcare experience that began at home, growing up with five younger siblings who I helped care for throughout my life. I’ve babysat regularly, helped with homework, and supported daily routines for years. I have experience caring for children of all ages, including freshly newborn babies. I also worked as a full-time nanny for one year, caring for four children who had recently been adopted out of foster care, which strengthened my skills in patience, emotional support, and structured caregiving. My skills include newborn and infant care, homework help, meal preparation and meal prep, complete housekeeping, and managing multiple children at once. I am CPR trained and take safety very seriously. I am dependable, attentive, and committed to providing safe, loving, and reliable care for every family I work with.

I’ve been a paid nanny for the last 5 years now. However, I’ve raised my own child and nephews. Working with kids of all ages at church and in school has been a passion of mine. I truly enjoy it and find it very therapeutic. My hobbies include anything outdoors and sports as well as cooking and crafts. So, keeping your children busy wouldn’t be a problem. Living in the area for 40 years has made me very familiar with it and the people. Thanks, Rose

I have delighted in caring for children for more than 35 years. As the oldest grandchild on both sides, I had lots of little cousins to practice on! I was then blessed to raise 5 kids of my own (currently 25, 24, 23, 21, and 19). When the youngest went off to kindergarten, I started caring for babies and toddlers in different child care centers. I have served in both lead and co-teacher scenarios, focusing on children birth to 24 months. My associate's degree is in child development, while my bachelor's is in business administration. I have held my Director's Credential in the state of Florida, but let it lapse as I am more interested in hands on child care than I am in the administrative duties involved in running a center. I have also served as the Youth Services Coordinator in a small community library. I hosted storytimes 4x per week as well as monthly movies and special events. I still host a monthly storytime for the community, though not through the library. I live in a tourist area in Florida and run a sitting service for visitors (www.beachbabyzzz.com). I do much of the sitting myself, building relationships with families that last for years. I also have a cadre of ladies that I send when I am not available. I can provide a multitude of outstanding references upon request. Thanks for taking the time to look at my profile!
