I am originally from Peru, and traveled to the States to continue my education. I have plenty of experience working with infants and toddlers. I am a Spanish native speaker, but also can communicate in English pretty well. In addition to all my cares, I have taught all my charges how to speak the language, showing them the beauty of Spanish through songs, games, and books. I love being active, enjoying everything this city has to offer, so I like going to the park, playground, museums, pool, beach, library, everywhere we can learn and have fun at the same time! My qualifications include but not limited to: - Supervise and get involve in children's activities indoors and outdoors, and attend with them to infant or toddler classes, story-hour at the local library, going to the park, playground, etc. - Cook age appropriate and healthy meals and snacks for the child, assist in feeding them while teaching table manners. - Provide a stimulating learning environment for the child's physical, social, emotional,and cognitive development and encourage social interaction organizing play dates - Help reinforce developmental transitions, such as sleep training, eating solid foods, potty training, etc. - Willing to follow a sleep and/or nap schedule and set a routine. - Able to perform light housework related to the child: laundry (clothes, bed liners, etc.), general tidying of child's room and play areas, cleaning up after child's meals. - Wash child's dishes and bottles and sterilize baby feeding supplies and toys. - Knowledge of the proper handling of breast milk (defrost, warm it up, and storage) and formula. - Comfortable giving medication (under parent's instructions) and doing cloth diapering. - Experience with babies with eczema problems and acid re-flux. I like to have a close relationship with the parents, so we can talk over your kids' needs and difficulties during their development and help them together, as a team. I am looking for a long-term position with an easygoing, professional, and well-organized family, who can treat me with respect and accept me as a member of it.

- 7 years paid experience

Hello and thank you for taking the time to get to know me! My name is Zaina, and I’m an experienced, nurturing, and dedicated childcare provider with a true passion for supporting children’s growth and development. My journey in early childhood education began in high school, where I completed a certified Early Childhood Education program. This foundational experience sparked my love for working with children and led me to begin babysitting and nannying for families with children ranging from infants to 12 years old. Over the years, I’ve worked in a wide variety of childcare settings, including homes, preschools, and after-school programs. I spent three years as an educator and program manager at an elementary school, where I created and implemented engaging daily lesson plans and activities tailored to each child's needs. My approach blends structure with creativity to foster a safe, fun, and educational environment. I’m also experienced in household management and understand how to keep a home running smoothly while ensuring children are happy and well cared for. Currently, I’m pursuing a degree in nursing, which has further deepened my knowledge of child health and development. I’m certified in both infant and child CPR and BLS (Basic Life Support), and I bring a calm, attentive presence to every role I take on. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, staying active, and continuously learning new ways to better support the children in my care. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, energy, and dedication to a family who values compassionate, reliable care.

Wendy G.
- 6 years paid experience
- 15 miles

Hello! My name is Wendy, I am 26, oldest sister of 5 kids. I started my professional childcare journey back in 2019 working at a daycare where I started as a floater(hoping around different age groups, where needed.) and slowly transitioned into a lead infant teacher. This role taught me everything I know about infant routines, sleep schedules, reaching developmental milestones, infant friendly activities, bottles, puree and introducing solid foods. In 2024 I transitioned from daycare to being a nanny where I worked with different families and children ranging the ages of infancy to school age. My experience has now expanded to helping with homework, picking up from school, driving children to activities, and making healthy meals. Now that you know about my childcare experience, I’m also very easy going, in my free time I like to spend time with my family, try different coffee shops (I love coffee!) and restaurants. I have both a cat and dog so I’m comfortable with all pets.

Hello! I'm Rebecca and I have just recently graduated high school as an early grad! I moved down to Florida from Illinois this month to be with my parents until I attend college in the fall. As a high schooler I took a child development class and also got certified for CPR and AED. I have been babysitting sense I was twelve years old and have worked and volunteered in church childcares working with infants through 12 year olds. I have also nannied over this past summer for 9 hours a day for a wonderful family. They had a 5 year old boy and a 1 year old girl who were both an absolute joy to work with. I have always loved children and considered myself to have a natural ability to work with them. I have a very soft and kind heart, making it even sweeter to be with kids. I am very patient and loving towards not only kids, but anyone and everyone. I recently went on a mission trip to Tucson, Arizona and ran a vacation bible school for kids of all ages. That has only grown my love for kids and helping them in any way I can!
