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.

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.

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.

Trinity R.

Hi, I’m Trinity! I’m 22 and I’ve always loved working with kids. Growing up with four little brothers (two with autism), I got a lot of hands-on experience early on. I was basically the family babysitter, so looking after kids just became second nature to me. Since then, I’ve worked with families who had babies, toddlers, and even teenagers, and I’ve done everything from full-time nannying to helping out last minute. I’ve watched kids as young as 7 months old and also handled overnights and bigger groups. Parents I’ve worked for have said their kids “immediately fell in love” with me and that I bring a fun, positive energy into their homes. I also like to pitch in with things like light cleaning, keeping routines on track, and helping with homework — it just makes life easier for everyone. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids — whether that’s playing outside, doing arts and crafts, or just hanging out and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I know every family and every child is different, and I try my best to adjust to whatever you need.

I’ve been a full-time nanny for over 15 years, caring mostly for newborns through age five. I’ve had the privilege of working with more than 20 local families, including twins, triplets, and children with special needs. I hold CPR certification, have completed water safety courses, and can provide strong local references. Families can also count on me for safe transportation—I have a clean driving record, a reliable newer car, and I don’t smoke or drink. I love keeping kids active, engaged, and having fun. Some of my favorite activities include water play, sensory bins, arts and crafts, nature walks, dance parties, and imaginative play that sparks creativity. I’m a big kid at heart, which helps me connect naturally with children and make each day exciting while steering away from screen time. My goal is always to be an extension of the parents and support them in raising confident, motivated, and kindhearted children. My caregiving style blends authoritative and gentle parenting: I set firm but reasonable boundaries, use natural consequences, and make sure feelings are always heard and validated. I am passionate about helping children grow into well-rounded, well-adjusted individuals who have the foundation they need to thrive.
