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.

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.

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.

I’m also a Christian and currently studying theology, which has shaped my values of love, patience, and responsibility especially when caring for children.

Hi! My name is Kate Busbee and I live in Arlington, VA. I grew up in Orlando and went to college in Kentucky and moved to Arlington after college. I am one of four kids and have been surrounded by young cousins and a big family my whole life. In high school, I worked one-on-one with children with disabilities and helped integrate an inclusive classroom program that had high school aged kids with down syndrome attend classes with the rest of the high school. I am patient, kind, loving, and respectful and love to spend time with kids. I am looking for opportunities before or after work and have a reliable car. I have been babysitting pretty much all ages (from 8 months old to 13) since I was in 7th grade and have spent previous high school and college summers babysitting. I also have previously worked camps during the summer and throughout the year where I am supervising groups of 8-10 elementary ages kids and designing tasks for them. I am a super active person who loves to be outdoors and do activities that are engaging and love to get outside when I can! I also am handy around the house and want to help out in any way I can including cooking, cleaning, laundry, and everything in between. I am CPR certified and have a clean driving record (no tickets or wrecks). If you have any questions or would like any more information, please feel free to reach out. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

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.
