Catrina is an absolutely wonderful nanny, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had her care for our family. She is warm, dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring. From the very beginning, she made us feel completely comfortable and confident that our child was in excellent hands. Catrina has a natural way with children, she is patient, engaging, nurturing, and always attentive to their individual needs. She brings a wonderful balance of fun and structure, and it’s clear that she truly enjoys spending time with the children in her care. She is also responsible, communicative, punctual, and someone we could consistently rely on. What stands out most about Catrina is how much she genuinely cares. She goes above and beyond, pays attention to the little things, and treats the children she looks after with kindness and affection. Having someone you trust caring for your child is invaluable, and Catrina gave us that peace of mind. We cannot recommend Catrina highly enough. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her as their nanny. She is truly exceptional!

Hi! I’m a warm, attentive, and dependable nanny with extensive experience caring for children from birth to age 8. I bring a calm, nurturing approach shaped by 16 years as a teacher and 7 years as a mom and foster parent, along with hands-on experience supporting infants and toddlers through their early developmental stages. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and comfortable caring for up to four children at a time. I believe childhood should be filled with curiosity, creativity, and joy, balanced with structure, consistency, and gentle guidance. I enjoy creating engaging, age-appropriate activities, supporting daily routines, and helping little ones navigate big feelings in a safe and loving environment. I value open communication with families and take pride in being reliable, patient, and someone parents can truly trust.

I lived in Florida from 2015-2020 I am originally from PA and we returned back here in 2020; I graduated with three degrees all in a science related field back in 2015. I started babysitting mostly my sister starting when I was about twelve and she was five. Once I started college I worked in a childcare center for about a year, I worked with children aged 6 months to 12 years of age. I love working with children because they are always on the go and exploring the world around them, it is a joy watching them learn and grow. Once my husband and I moved to Florida I started to nanny for a family of 5 they had twin girls age 2 and a son age 8, whom I still babysit for on occasion, especially when they go out of town. Since I have been in Florida I have babysat for multiple families on multiple occasions. The number of children I have watched at any given time ranges from 1-4 with ages between 2-13 as well as several with autism and/or ADHD. I have adapted to each situation and the same few families request my help on a regular basis. Each and every child needs attention, patience, and kindness. I do arts and crafts and read with the children as well as play with them whether that be, outdoors, video games, Legos, or board games. I do have previous first aid and CPR experience as well as a clean driving record and background check.

Hello Families! My name is Shannon. I am a 27 year old mom of two, to a 5 and 3 year old. I love being a sitter, because kids see the world in a whole new light than adults. Their curiosity, their joy, and courage to ask and/or say the first thing that comes to mind. I’ve been a childcare worker for 8 years, and it’s been a bittersweet experience. It’s a wonderful sight to see a child moving on up in their milestones and knowing you’ve played a role in it. I am CPR/First Aid certified, and I also and food safety certified.
