Find local babysitters in Ellenton, FL

With 15 years of experience babysitting, I’m all about having fun while helping kiddos learn and grow! I love arts and crafts, playing games and outside activities.

I have been taking care of kids whether being a volleyball assistant coach for middle schoolers and also babysitting my neighbors children. All of the parents I have worked for have said that I have a special ability to make their children happy and calm. I am very exercise driven and educated driven. I will be able to provide homework help as well as projects. I am currently enrolled at Elon University and going into my Sophomore year. I am ending Freshman year on the Deans List twice (honors). I think reading is very important and I want to make sure that there should be moments where children can read during the day or night as well as have some time for electronics. I also love taking the kids out to run around, play basketball, volleyball, soccer, swimming, etc. I am CPR certified as well as lifeguarding. I also know how to cook very well courtesy of my mother who makes homemade food every day. Again, I love kids very much and I will make sure they are safe no matter what.

Hi! My name is Ashley Boatwright, I am a 24 year-old from Atlanta, Ga. I graduated GA Southern University with a Business Administration Degree in Management in 2023 and relocated to FL upon my graduation. I have 11 years of combined experience in babysitting, nannying, and working in quality-rated daycares. I am currently a nanny for 3 girls age 2-7 and started when the youngest was a week old. This position included drop offs, pickups, extra curricular actives, household management, and everything in between. I am looking for a new position as the youngest will be starting preschool in August. I started babysitting in middle school and went on to work in child care in high school through an early childhood program where I worked my first job in a daycare setting. I floated between all rooms (3 months to 5 years old) and assisted the lead teachers with whatever was needed. This included feedings, changing, activities, learning time, nap time, and many other duties. Through this position, I gained 2 full-time nanny clients and many other babysitting jobs. These positions included babysitting individual kids, multiple children, infants, toddlers, elementary kids, and special needs children. During the summers I was a full-time/part-time nanny to 3 different families with kids aged 2-8. When I left for college I got a job at a quality-rated daycare in Statesboro where I was a co-lead teacher for a class of 1 to 2-year-olds. I then went on to nanny for a family with 2 kids aged 7-9 and was their nanny for 2 years. My duties included picking the kids up from school, taking them to extracurriculars, meal time, and homework, taking them out and about to get out of the house, and helping them navigate being a kid. I am extremely passionate about working with children and truly love being an extra hand that parents can rely on. As they say, raising kids takes a village and I would love to be a member of yours!

Children are my passion.... and I honestly mean that! I sadly never had my own... so I try to surround myself in a child's love! First thing parents ask me and want to know is, am I vaccinated? Yes and I have the Moderna Booster, and I will bring my card along to show you. I moved down to Florida 10 years ago from Chicago to take care of my 2 elderly parents and just a few weeks ago my father passed. I now have a lot of time so I want to get back into babysitting and child care. In addition to being a full time nanny I have experience in babysitting all ages of Children. I have started with infants of 3 months all the way up to Tweens. I am not a sitter who will play on their smart phone in the oresence of your child... actually I find that behavior rude when it is done to me and to be honest my job is to engage and interact with your child so we bring out the best in each other. That is the very least I can do for your child and it is my job! So please don't worry about that. Also if I am driving your child anywhere I will keep your child's safety as my number one priority and I drive cautiously and if course defensively looking out for any distracted drivers that might exist. I haven't ever been in any accidents and I sure don't plan on any. I sure hope I get a chance to meet your wonderful family soon! Warm regards, Lori Robertson

Hi there! My name is Alexis, and I'm a 31-year-old with a passion for working with children and creating positive, fun, and supportive environments. As the oldest of five siblings, I’ve always had a natural ability to care for and connect with others. My family has a military background, which has instilled in me a sense of discipline, adaptability, and a love for exploring new places. For five years, I had the privilege of being a nanny for two wonderful families during both the school year and summer. This experience allowed me to build strong bonds with kids of all ages and further develop my skills in childcare. Afterward, I spent seven years working as a flight attendant with a regional US airline, where I honed my ability to stay calm under pressure, manage multiple tasks at once, and interact with people from all walks of life. Last year, my husband, our dog Podrick, and I decided to take a pause from our careers to travel around Europe and the UK for ten months, experiencing new cultures and adventures along the way. This time of travel has enriched my life with valuable new perspectives and memories. I'm excited to bring my diverse experiences to new families and offer dependable, loving, and professional care. Whether you're looking for a nanny, babysitter, or just someone to lend a helping hand, I'm here to help make life a little easier for you!

Hi there! I am a Nana who very much misses her grandchildren who live in NH. Chase is 11 and Cole is 13 but they live in NH. We live in Ruskin and I am not good at being retired - I really like to stay active and have interaction with children, especially babies and toddlers. I love all kinds of animals - we have two dogs and seven cats! I am available for date nights and on weekends. I have worked for five lovely families in the area and can provide written references from them. Several would be happy to chat with you by phone as well. I am kind, honest, loving, responsible and reliable. Babies and toddlers are my very favorite humans, and I have often been called “The Baby Whisperer”! I have been married for 47 years and have two grown sons. When they were growing up, our house was always the place to hang out, and we very much enjoyed getting to know all of their friends. Several of them still call me Mom, although they have moms of their own! I am certified by the Red Cross in Infant/ChildAdult CPR and First Aid and am fully vaccinated. My driving record is clean.
