I am a retired RN of 30 years. I am easy going, loving, and easy to talk with. I only will consider part time work to help young families fill in gaps in their schedules and especially date nights. I am prompt and reliable. I am flexible with hours and days. I am usually available on last minute needs. I am medically capable in emergencies and i am fun and imaginative with play time with children and very patient and enjoy helping with school work. I prefer working evenings and nights. I am experienced with child CPR and PALS. I have been vaccinated and boostered. My car is new thus dependable and I am comfortable with your pets. I give your child undivided attention and am very caring as if they were my own. I have references upon request.

Susan was incredible from start to finish! She showed up to our event and connected/engaged with all children in the house. Immediately, one of the children commented “Miss Susan is so nice”. The children and I felt very comfortable with Susan and will certainly reach out for another booking if we are in the area!!

Thank you for selecting my profile. I have over 10 years of experience caring for children ranging from newborns to pre-teens, and I raised two children on my own. I am based in Sarasota and have a new SUV, a clean driving record, and a clean background. I am AED/CPR Certified for Adults, Children and Babies.

If you would like me to take your child out of your home, rest assured I have training in Krav Maga, an Israeli self-defense system. Your child will be safe. Additionally, I hold a voluntary inactive Florida Real Estate License, which means my fingerprints are on file with the state and I have passed a background check.

I have a true passion for working with children. I am patient, energetic, nurturing, and love staying busy. During nap times, I prefer organizing, tidying up, or helping with light household tasks. I like having fun while helping children learn and thrive. I am easy-going and work with all personalities. I follow the parenting style that you choose. I have always treated the children in my care as my own and will be just as protective and loving.

Maria did a wonderful job watching my 2-year-old and 10-month-old. She gracefully managed both kids, kept up with all their needs, made sure they had nutritious meals, and stayed on top of diaper changes. She was patient, caring, and dependable.

Hi! My name is Arianna. I am a compassionate, dependable babysitter with years of experience in healthcare and childcare. I’m currently in college studying radiologic technology, to then become a diagnostic sonographer! I have been working with children since I was 17 years old. From preschools, to in home care, as well as day camps. I am able to do school/camp pickup and drop offs, drives to and from extracurricular activities, homework help, assistance with other household duties. I genuinely enjoy working with, caring for and connecting with kids.

Arianna helped me out on short notice and was able to watch my daughter for four hours while I had to go to an appointment. I found Arianna to responsive, responsible and a genuinely nice and happy person. My 8 year old enjoyed her time with Arianna (and she’s rather picky about her sitters). I’d use Arianna again and would highly recommend if you’re looking for a great sitter.

Colleen R., Babysitter in Sarasota, FL 34232 with 15 years of paid experience

As a teen ager I always enjoyed babysitting neighboring children after school and during the summers. I now have 3 grown children in their 20's. When they were in school I enjoyed participating in their many activities including Girl and Boy Scouts. I also voluntered in their religious program. For many years when my kids were younger I used to care for a few children after school and assist with their homework. I have experience working with special needs children and am very patient and caring. I have worked in a school with special needs children for 5 years. I also have two nephews with autism in which I watch occasionally. For the past year I have worked as a senior Caregiver in the Sarasota area and have gained a lot of experience. I understand that dependability is crucial. There would be no worries trusting your children in my care.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Bree! She has been an absolute blessing for our family and has formed such a special bond with my 3-year-old son. From the very first day, she made him feel comfortable, safe, and happy, which as a parent, means the world. She’s reliable, patient, and incredibly attentive to his needs and routines. Whether it’s playtime, snack time, or helping him wind down for bed, she handles everything with so much care and calm. I love how she engages him in creative play, reads to him, and encourages learning through fun. Every time she leaves, he’s already asking when she’ll be back! It gives me so much peace of mind knowing that my son is in such capable and loving hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, nurturing, and truly amazing with children, she’s the one.

Christina (Leaf) took on full nanny responsibilities for our 16 month twins for two weeks due to a gap in care before they started school. We wish would have found her earlier because the twins took to her so quickly. She was on time, patient, caring and in two short weeks taught the twins to be more independent and responsive. We strongly recommend her if you are looking for full time care.

I am an experienced caregiver and proud mother of four, with a passion for nurturing children. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of raising my own children while homeschooling them, which has given me a deep understanding of individual learning styles, patience, and the importance of creating a supportive environment. My experience extends beyond just childcare; I bring a well-rounded approach that includes engaging activities, teaching moments, and a safe, nurturing atmosphere. In addition to my hands-on experience, I also have a reliable, safe vehicle, ensuring I can transport your children with the utmost care and security.
