Hi, I'm 30 years old and I'm from Peru. When I became in aunt at 14 years old, I discorvered that I liked children, so I started to spend time with my nieces and learn about babies and children. In their birthday parties, my sisters and parents around always asked me that I play with their kids, at that moment I realized that not only I like children, unless children like to spend time with me too. I worked as baby sitter in Peru while I was a university student (2012-2016), here in Orlando I work as occasional baby sitter, and I’ve worked with children from 8 months old to 12 years old. I have a diploma as children’s teacher and that’s what I’d like to do in a future.

Maria looked after our children really well while we were working. She was great company for a two year old and a twelve year old! We would recommend her highly.

With over a decade of experience working with children in both healthcare and play environments, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a genuine passion for nurturing young minds. As a certified Child CPR, AED, and First Aid provider, I prioritize safety and wellness in every interaction. As a mother myself, I understand the importance of creating a caring and supportive environment for children. My current role at a Seminole County elementary school not only allows me to engage with kids daily but also ensures I can pass all necessary background checks, giving parents peace of mind. I am committed to fostering a positive, enriching experience for every child in my care, ensuring they feel secure and valued while having fun.

We feel incredibly lucky to have had Emerson as our nanny. She began caring for our daughter when she was just 5 months old, shortly after I returned to work from maternity leave, and she quickly became like family to us. Emerson is warm, attentive, and truly adores the children she cares for. She played a huge role in supporting our daughter’s development, even teaching her early sign language, which has been tremendously helpful for communication. She is also an excellent communicator with parents and consistently logged diapers, bottles, solids, and naps in the Huckleberry app each day, along with sharing photos and videos that gave us peace of mind while we were at work. She is dependable, trustworthy, and one of the very few people I fully trust to care for my child. She was also wonderful with our cats and dog and fit seamlessly into our household. Our daughter is transitioning to daycare, which is the only reason Emerson is moving on from our family. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her.

Hi, I’m Trinity! I’m 23 and have always loved working with kids. Growing up with four younger brothers (two with autism), I gained a lot of hands-on experience early on. I have experience caring for babies, toddlers, and school-age children through both nannying and my current daycare role. I’ve worked with children as young as 7 months and have strong experience handling multiple children at once, especially in busy daycare settings where keeping routines running smoothly is key. I’m reliable, patient, and bring a fun, positive energy. I’m happy to help with light cleaning, homework, and keeping things organized so your home runs easier. I have my own car, so I’m dependable when it comes to transportation and punctuality. I truly enjoy what I do and always make sure kids feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

My son (who is 17 months) daycare had a lapse in availability and he had to stay home with me for a week while I worked. My dad reached out to Trinity who was more than accommodating on such short notice. She hopped on a call with me to go over basics. My son immediately fell in love with her upon meeting. She was prompt, professional, friendly, and fun! She even helped with household chores which was unexpected but so appreciated. I would use her again in a heartbeat and will when we are needing additional help watching out boy! I highly highly recommend!

I pride myself on my being very dependable, honest, mature, and I get great satisfaction out of helping others. I adore spending time with children and have 19+ years of experience caring for toddlers and infants. I am a 40 year old mother of 2 small furry dogs. Casper and Smokey are the love of my life. I have been around children my whole life so it comes very natural to me. All of my friends children call me Aunt April because I spoil and treat them as if they were my own. I am always looking for new, fun and creative ways to entertain children and pass the information down to my family and friends! I am currently learning sign language for infants, as I have experienced some amazing progress with children learning some basic signs and signals! I was a babysitter since a wee little kid and was actually a full and part time nanny for families in the many areas I have lived. It was a joy to watch the babies grow and bond with you! I am definitely a hands-on personality type and love to play with the children, engage in activities, sports, crafts, take for walks outside, help with homework or anything they prefer to help stimulate their minds as opposed to just sitting them in front of the tv all day. I also keep a "Nanny Journal" to document all of the activities performed that day to include all feedings, bottles, diapers, Rx administered, household cleaning, pet-care, or any other special notes to parents about anything important! I used to volunteer frequently at my old church in Nebraska (for several years) in the childcare room so I could watch the newborn babies. I have worked at an animal hospital in the past and became very experienced in many aspects of the veterinary field and can administer vaccinations, bathe, partially groom (depending on breed) give subQ fluids, give shots and other special needs. I am Red Cross certified in BOTH human AND pet first aid and CPR!! I know people cannot believe their is a class for dogs, but I am serious in knowing everything I can to save my "children's" life! Children and dogs are my passion and I’m always striving to learn more and help them flourish! I am taking COVID seriously to protect myself and others.

I would reccommend April over and over again. We have used her many times over the last couple of years and the kids adore her. She is responsible, creative, outgoing and I trust her completely with my kiddos. 5 stars and more

Michelle helped me remotely take care of my senior father with Parkinson's in Florida while I lived in California. He was in an Assisted Living Facility and she checked in on him weekly, spending time with him, and keeping me updated on his level of care. She was such a blessing during a stressful time when he was in and out of the hospital. She kept me updated about his care and concerns she had at the facility (like him getting his meds on time) and he was always so happy to have her visit. She was very sweet, communicative, and caring and I'd be happy to recommend her to other families looking for some additional care.

Hi! I’m Lina. I was born and raised in Cartagena, Colombia. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Education with a concentration in English. I taught English as a second language to little kids for 5 years in bilingual schools in Colombia.One of my favorite parts of working with kids is discovering their unique personalities and talents. In addition, I received training in Positive Discipline which helps young children to learn the importance of belonging and social-emotional skills. Now, I’m living in the States. I’m a creative, responsible, and dedicated person. I love traveling and learning about different cultures. I also enjoy playing board games and outdoor activities . I take my responsibility to you and yours very seriously, always mindful and with respect. My last nanny experience was with an 8-month baby girl and a 3-year-old boy. We used the app Kinedu on a daily basis. This app allowed me to implement activities that support the kid’s milestones accordingly. Currently only available on weekends.

Hire Lina without hesitation! Lina is the epitome of a compassionate and dedicated caretaker. Her knowledge, unwavering work ethic, punctuality, and sense of responsibility set her apart. Lina worked as our nanny from September 2022 to July 2023, my daughter, who is almost 2.5, started school in July, and still asks for her beloved Lina. As our nanny, Lina exceeded all of our expectations. She spent hours outdoors with our daughter, took her to the library, introduced her to swimming, and engaged them in constant reading, laughter, and play. Lina was never glued to her phone; her undivided focus was always on our child's needs, development, and happiness. What impressed us most was that Lina was consistently educating herself, broadening her understanding of a child's needs and applied her findings to enhance our child's well-being. We are immensely grateful to have found Lina and had her become such a significant part of our lives. She is truly exceptional, and we couldn't have asked for a better caregiver.
