We have relied on Nazneen as our trusted babysitter for many years, caring for our three children since they were toddlers (age 2 and up). Our children are now 22, 16, and 13, and even today she remains someone we fully trust and turn to for childcare support. She has always been our go-to caregiver because she is dependable, attentive, and genuinely wonderful with kids of all ages. Nazneen creates a safe, calm, and nurturing environment while also keeping children engaged and cared for. As a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and CPR-certified provider, she brings an added level of professionalism and confidence to her childcare. We have always felt completely comfortable leaving our children in her care and highly recommend her to any family looking for a responsible, experienced babysitter.

Cynthia S., Babysitter in Ocklawaha, FL 32179 with 7 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Cindy. I moved from Delaware to The Villages a few years ago. Upon moving to The Villages I worked as a nanny for a family that had 2 sons - 9 months old and 2 years old. Unfortunately the father had a job transfer and they relocated out of state. Since then I have had several babysitting jobs for children ages infant to 13 years old. I am college educated and retired as a personal care assistant for children with special needs in the pre-school through 6th grade school level. Prior to that I was a pre-school teacher and worked with 2-5 year olds. I am a very healthy, reliable, loving, caring, friendly and upbeat person. I am also very creative and I will bring fun and excitement to your child's day. I am CPR/First Aid certified, TB tested, non-smoker, and I have a clean driving record. I am an animal lover and have a Maine Coon cat named Bodie (although he thinks his name is Mommy's Baby). I also cook, clean, garden, do laundry, will walk a dog and use my car to drive around locally to do errands for you. I will also pick up your child from school or after school activities and help with homework. I am eager to hear from you regarding this position. References will gladly be provided to you upon request. Thank you for reading my story.

Hi my name is Hailey. I am a school teacher here in Ocala. I have extended experience with children of all ages. I began babysitting at the age of 13, starting off caring for children of family and friends. I have also worked for a few families as a nanny/part time caregiver. I have volunteered as a Girl Scout camp counselor for three years, the ages of the girls ranging from 5-11; I volunteered as a camp teacher assistant at the Museum of Natural History for five years, campers ranging from 1st-6th graders. I have recently updated my CPR and first aid certification. I am also comfortable with pets, as I have volunteered at the local animal shelter for a couple of years! I am also active in the community, volunteering at school and church functions frequently. In addition, I have taught kindergarten and first grade. My rates are between $12-20/hour, depending on the age and number of children, and it is always negotiable.
