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.

I can also do tutoring and homework help in many different subject areas! I have my own car, and a super flexible schedule.

My four year old daughter has been having an absolute blast with Emmett. They have been going off on little aventures during the day and coming back to do art projects and dress up. He seems very comfortable with kids and doesn't need to be reminded about things like sunblock or making sure they have snacks. He has been easy to communicate with and punctual.

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.

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!

Hi, my name is Shaniah i’ve been a babysitter since the age of 15 & have helped raise all of my siblings, so i pride myself on being able to easily connect with children. I am a very responsible, punctual person that follows instructions without any problem and who is always aware of the time for the different activities that I must do with the kids (play time, study time, dinner time, and bedtime). The children respect my authority and consider me as part of their family. You can be sure that your kids will be in the best hands with me, a responsible and integral person.

I love working with children and having the opportunity to learn and grow with them. I currently work as a substitute teacher in FCCS and my first ever job was at a daycare, where I had many skills needed in the childcare industry. I worked as a floater and was able to work in almost every classroom that ranged from infants to preschoolers. Thankfully, I had the opportunity to learn and grow with all kinds of personalities and thrive in different types of environments. One of those qualities is the ability to multitask and develop critical thinking skills in a fast-paced environment, while also keeping everyone safe and happy. After working there a couple of months, I worked for a nannying/baby nurse agency and I had the pleasure of working as an infant nurse/caregiver and was able to care for two lovely little girls. I also had the responsibility of assisting their mother in the house with light duties. Overall it was a very lovely experience and I learned a lot from these individuals. I believe I would be a great fit due to my experience and my eagerness and willingness to learn more and grow.

We have a 2yr old and 3yr old and I had never booked a sitter before. Needless to say I was nervous! From the moment Maria walked in she was sweet as can be and the girls just gravitated towards her! She put us at ease that’s for sure. She was patient and graceful with the girls. They love when she comes over! We will be booking with Maria continuously. We most definitely recommend Maria!

I’m a once certified baby-sitter (it has since expired but I still have all the CPR and first aid knowledge). I have experience watching and caring for kids of all ages from diapers to middle schoolers. I have since worked at all popular theme parks such as Disney, SeaWorld, Legoland, and Peppa Pig Theme Park, so I know what it takes to entertain! I also have autism certification training and extensive experience with children with special needs. I was a substitute teacher for Polk County for 2 years, with a focus on Elementary and Special Education.

Marissa was AMAZING! She was high energy, cam on time, super professional and knew Disney like the back of her hand! She was patient and fun with my autistic non-verbal daughter, age 6 and my son age 4. Amazing vacation due to Marissa and her amazing nanny style! Very Mary Poppins! Hiring her again this year!

I truly love babysitting because I find immense joy in helping children learn, grow, and feel safe and cared for. Each child has their own unique personality and needs, and I love being a part of their daily discoveries and routines. It is a very rewarding experience to build strong, positive bonds with children and their families. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged children. Over the years, I have worked in a preschool setting, and have worked with families both full-time and part-time, providing not only supervision but also engaging in creative play, educational activities, and outdoor fun. I am comfortable managing mealtime, naptime, and bedtime routines, and always focus on creating a warm and welcoming environment. Nowadays, i work as nanny and babysitter around Orlando In terms of skills and training, I am CPR and First Aid certified, very organized, patient, and responsible. I also speak Portuguese and English, which can be great for bilingual families! Whether it is for one-on-one meetings or regular weekly help, I am happy to support your family in any way you need. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!

It was such a great idea having a nanny with us at the theme parks! Miss Devin spent the day with our family at Hollywood Studios. The kids absolutely loved her! She stayed with our youngest while he napped in his stroller and kept him entertained after he woke up. This gave the rest of our family some time to go ride the more adventurous rides that our toddler is still too young to do. I would absolutely recommend Miss Devin to any family, especially families with younger children who could benefit from having an extra set of hands while visiting Disney!
