We’ve been working with Rane for a couple of months now and she’s been fantastic! Our daughter adores her (as does our pup). She’s friendly and playful with our kiddo and reliable and communicative with us. We plan to keep her as long as she’ll have us—definitely recommend!

Summary: Hello! My name is Averyelle or you can call me Av. I hope you are having a good day! I am hoping to find a babysitting opportunity in Tampa, Florida, where I can apply my skills and love for working with kids. My availability is flexible. Description of Skills: I am a 18-year-old female with a babysitting license and a big heart for kids. I come from a large family with five sisters. I'm the third child, so I've spent lots of time helping with my three younger siblings. I also have experience caring for younger cousins, family friends, and volunteering with my aunt at a daycare. I'm a loving, patient, and responsible person who knows how to be both fun and serious when needed. I enjoy keeping kids happy, engaged, and comfortable while making sure they're safe. I'm available most of the time and can babysit at my home preferably or yours (whatever works best for the both of us). Rates: $15/hr for one child and $25/hr for two children. Overnight stays (typically 8 hours and up): flat rate starting at $100. First-time families receive $5 off their first-booking or $10 off an overnight stay. I look forward to meeting your family and caring for your little ones!

I have been babysitting regularly with kids since I was 10 - needless to say, I’ve seen it all. I’ve been volunteering with kids since middle school as well and truly find so much fulfillment in pouring in to the next generation. I am currently in school working towards becoming a trauma therapist for kids! I work with all ages fairly regularly, so I do incredibly well babysitting for families with kids of all different ages. I am exceptionally talented at working with children who have behavioural issues as well! Being fully online for school, I'm able to be incredibly flexible which parents love about me! I also am willing to work very late (12 a.m. - 3 a.m.) and do overnights as well. For a full rundown of my work rates, please reach out! Feel free to contact me for more information or even schedule a call :)

Overdue review! Jillian was great for our family vacation to St. Pete! Very communicative and offered a FaceTime ahead of time which made us feel super comfortable. She also was very transparent about her fees as well as what time she would arrive and expect to leave. Our 8 month old had no problem with her.

My name is Jeanne Baloy. I have been a childcare provider for over 18 years, and I enjoy caring for children and have experience with newborn to teens. I like playing games with the kids such as imaginary games and learning games. I enjoy engaging with the kids with arts and crafts, puzzles and stories. I also provide homework help, preparing meals, and light housekeeping. With smaller children, I enjoy preparing their bottles, feeding, bathing, diapering, tummy-time, and story-time. My number one priority with children is their contentment and safety. I have experience with sick children, premature infants, babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and grade-school age to teens. I have worked as an on-call Nanny, so I have a variety of experience with different ages as well as different situations. I have also worked with families as a permanent Nanny and I enjoyed that the most, because I am able to bond more with the child, something I really enjoy. I am neat, trustworthy, dependable, conscientious and nurturing. I also have skills in organization, in following a schedule and in communicating well. I think I am a good role model for kids. All these things are important to me. I have 48 Credit Hours in higher education and am Certified in child/infant/adult CPR and First Aid. I have reliable transportation and excellent references. Personally, I enjoy pets, being outdoors, going to the beach and spending time with family and friends. Thanks for your consideration.

Jeanne is a dream. I needed someone on short notice and prayed Jeanne would just keep my granddaughter safe while I was out. What happened was my granddaughter loved Jeanne from the moment they met. She is so happy every time she sees Jeanne and is in a great, happy mood when I return home. Jeanne is dependable, wonderful with babies, kind, and loving. I can't wait to have her back as often as possible. Do not hesitate to work with Jeanne.

We would still be using her services if it wasn’t for moving out of state. Andrea was especially great with our son who is on the autism spectrum. She didn’t get rattled by him and was one of the only sitters we had who could keep his attention. I also found she was great at keeping my kiddos active and burning energy so they slept well. I really miss her and wish she was up where we live now.

Jordan has been great with our son, Logan for a few years now. She started sitting for him when he was a toddler and she was in middle school. He just started middle School and just spent the summer shopping with her before she left for school in Tampa. We love and miss her!
