Liseth G., Babysitter in Merritt Island, FL 32953 with 0 years of paid experience

“Caring, responsible, Native Spanish speaker, with good understanding of English babysitter with experience raising three children and a passion for creating safe, nurturing, and fun environments for kids.” I am a 53-year-old woman and a university graduate in my home country. Most of my childcare experience comes from raising my three children, who are now 25, 23, and 17 years old. Through this, I developed a deep passion for caring for children and supporting their growth at every stage. I truly enjoy creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where little ones can learn through play, crafts, music, and age-appropriate developmental activities. I am patient, caring, and very responsible, always attentive to children’s needs. I am physically and mentally healthy, family-oriented, and raised with strong values. I am fully documented to live and work in the U.S., have my own vehicle, and hold a clean driver’s license. CPR & First Aid certified through the American Red Cross. Certifications are available and up to date. My native language is Spanish, and I can communicate effectively in English. Families also appreciate that I can expose children to Spanish through songs, games, and everyday interaction if desired. I am fully available on Wednesdays (all day). On other days, my availability is mainly in the afternoons and evenings, but I am open to arranging a schedule that works best for your family.
