Hey There! I’m Gaby, I’m 33 yrs old. It is very easy for me to get along with kids. The reason I think it is because I go down their level. I sit on the floor, play their game that many times they make up in the moment. I’m energetic. I jump, run with them if necessary. So far I’ve worked in DayCares and for families privately. I have work with newborns to after schools. And I get along well with all of them. I like sports so is a plus when you want your child to get tired and have fun at the same time.

After posting for a date night sitter while in FL for vacation, I received a number of applicants and Gaby’s introduction and profile appeared very inviting to me. We exchanged numbers after a short while and then arranged a FaceTime for Gaby to meet my 2 young children prior to us flying into town. She was wonderful with the kids on the phone! They both warmed up to her so quickly which was a surprise to me as they rarely have had a sitter. When we came into town, communication with Gaby on plans flowed so easily, I was so confident that she was the right choice for my little ones. When Gaby arrived, it continued to flow. The kids really enjoyed her, she stayed in communication with me through the evening on the kids requests and when they were sleeping. I appreciated and welcomed the communication. I would highly recommend Gaby - she is responsible, reasonable, communicative and so warm and friendly!

Nessa was fantastic taking care of our three kids (and dog) while we were in Europe. Even with their different ages and routines, she was super prepared and handled everything with ease. She made sure our youngest got to school on time, stayed on top of the older two’s schedules, and kept us updated regularly, which was such a relief. The kids all had great things to say about her—she kept everything running smoothly and made them feel comfortable the whole time. We’re so grateful for her care and would highly recommend her to anyone!

My name is Carolyn Richard, and I currently live in Orlando, Florida. I graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2012 and have been a full time nanny ever since. My extensive experience in elementary education as well as my passion for creating a stimulating environment for growth and development makes me a stand out nanny. I enjoy guiding children through their developmental milestones and learning what peaks their interests. I take pride in creating educational activities centered around their interests. I have had the pleasure of student teaching in several classrooms from kindergarten to high school special needs. I put a lot of emphasis on exploring outdoors, creating, and reading. I am a crafty person and love to create as well as garden. I also enjoy baking and cooking, and I excel at coming up with hands on learning activities. I am an organized person that enjoys creating a schedule that can flow seamlessly. My childcare philosophy is to teach kindness. I am friendly but firm on the rules and happy to explain to children why it is important to follow the rules and maintain their safety. I like to teach kids through fun activities that capture their interests. I also teach personal responsibilities and manners. My goal is to help raise kind and capable humans that can effectively express themselves and learn to help care for themselves.

I have plenty of time on my handa considering school is on my terms. unemployed because i help my parents watch over my siblings but im trying to raise money to help my parents out with food and necessitates. I have extensive with children such as babysitting, camp counselor, afterschool care, and intern with children with disabilities.

Absolutely wonderful first babysitting experience! We needed a sitter on short notice for a night out while staying at a hotel, and Diana was an absolute lifesaver. This was our kids’ very first time with a babysitter (ages 6, 5, and 1), so we were a little nervous—but Diana put us completely at ease.She arrived prepared with games and activities that kept all three kids happily engaged. Throughout the evening she sent us photos, which made us feel so connected and reassured. The kids clearly had a great time, and the sweetest moment came the next day when my son declared he doesn’t want any new babysitter… unless it’s Diana!We’re so grateful Diana made their first babysitting experience such a positive one. Highly recommend her—she’s reliable, thoughtful, and wonderful with kids of different ages. We would definitely hire her again in a heartbeat.

With nearly 20 years of experience working with children, I bring both professional expertise and a genuine passion for helping kids thrive. I have worked as a professional nanny and tutor with children of all ages, including newborns, multiples (such as quadruplets), and children with special needs, sensory and behavioral challenges, ADHD, and developmental delays. I have experience in Early Intervention and Birth-to-Three programs, where I supported developmental goals, tracked progress, adapted plans, and collaborated with families. Teaching is one of my greatest strengths, especially early literacy and kindergarten readiness, and I enjoy helping children meet and exceed developmental milestones in a supportive, confidence-building way. I am patient, dependable, and committed to being a positive role model. I am CPR and First Aid certified, maintain a clean background and DMV record, and have excellent references.

I am writing to offer my highest recommendation for Courtney Williams as an outstanding educator and caregiver. I have had the privilege of having Courtney work with my two-year-old son, Dean, and I cannot overstate the positive impact she has had on his development. Courtney has shown an exceptional ability to nurture Dean’s growth in ways that far exceed our expectations for his age. Through her thoughtful and engaging teaching methods, Dean has achieved numerous developmental milestones ahead of schedule. Most notably, Courtney has fostered Dean’s impressive abilities in counting and early literacy, helping him recognize numbers and letters well before the typical developmental age for such skills. What truly stands out about Courtney is her approach to building Dean’s reading skills. Through playful and creative activities, she has helped him develop into an emergent reader. Courtney employs a variety of techniques that not only make learning enjoyable but also instill a love of reading in Dean. From letter recognition to phonics and simple word formation, she has been instrumental in laying the foundation for his future literacy skills. Courtney’s patience, dedication, and passion for teaching have been key to Dean’s accelerated learning. She is highly attuned to his individual needs and tailors her approach to ensure that he remains engaged and motivated. Thanks to her guidance, Dean is not only meeting but surpassing developmental milestones, and it’s clear that he looks forward to learning with her. In summary, I wholeheartedly recommend Courtney Williams for her exceptional teaching abilities and her remarkable contribution to Dean’s early education. She has made a profound difference in his learning journey, and I am incredibly grateful for the positive impact she has had on his development.
