Hi I am a retired dental hygienist after working 30 yrs in the same office. I have 4 kids and 8 grandkids. am available for week days and date nights and overnights. .I was working for a.vascular surgeon and neurologist taking care of there 18 mo old..started when she was 3 mo but grandma retired and wanted to watch the baby. I was watching a 3 yr.old little girl in Valrico 5 days a week ..started full time when she was 4 mo old but she is going to montessori full time so my job ended . I was working 4 days a week for a couple in Valrico taking care of a 2 yr old( I started when she was 3 mo) and 7 and 8 yr old. She is now enrolled in a Montessori school .l And I was working full time in Tampa watching a yr old but that ended because he is going to the same school as his brother.Previous to that I was working for 2 lawyers who have a 4 mo old and a 2.5 yr old. but they moved to Tallahasee. And I also worked for a couple in Plant City who have a 2.5 yr old son during the week. I am cpr certified and do not have a criminal background.. I love children and when I retired from the dental profession I knew I wanted day care to be my next profession.. I live in Lakeland but I don't mind driving 45 min to an hr away. I did it for 30 yrs and in the snow!! I have a 2012 Toyota prius and it's great on gas and I have a clean driving record. I devote my whole time to the child and children. Gina aka Norma Jean. I have a copy of my background report and drivers report that I had done.

Hi, I’m Erika! I’ve been babysitting for more than 4 years, I’m CPR/AED & first aid certified and have completed my early childhood development certification with DCF. I’m comfortable cooking, helping with chores and homework. During high school I took medical classes and early childhood. I’ve learned how to make age appropriate lessons for children through my DCF certification, so I’m familiar with learning activities. Outside of babysitting I pet sit so I’m comfortable around animals! A few things about myself, I enjoy crafting/scrapbooking, going to the beach or walking the lake, baking/cooking, shopping and traveling! Some of my favorite activities to do with the kids I babysit are going to the park, reading, crafts and creative play. Hoping to meet you and your family soon!

With five years of professional, paid babysitting experience and a lifetime of helping raise my two younger siblings, childcare is truly my passion. As a recent high school graduate with high honors who aspires to be a teacher, I love creating a safe, fun, and educational environment where kids can thrive. I am fully CPR certified, exceptionally reliable, and can easily provide excellent references upon request. When I am not babysitting, I work at the local movie theater, which comes with a fantastic bonus: while I'm babysitting, I can take your kids to the movies completely for free! I love connecting with families and bringing positive energy, patience, and structure into the home. I look forward to giving your children a fun, safe, and memorable experience while giving you total peace of mind.

Wedeline has been wonderful with our kids, and we truly appreciate the care and attention she gives them every time she babysits. She is patient, kind, and attentive, and she makes sure our children feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. She takes the time to interact with them, keep them engaged, and give each of them the attention they need. As parents, having someone we trust with our children means everything. Wedeline gives us peace of mind knowing our kids are in caring and capable hands while we’re away. We appreciate how thoughtful she is and the effort she puts into making each experience a positive one for our family. We’re grateful to have her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring babysitter!

Hi there! I’m Vanessa, though most kids call me “Nessa.” I’m 27 years old and have a true passion for working with children of all ages. Whether it’s for a date night or regular care, I bring years of experience as both a nanny and babysitter through various childcare companies, along with hands-on experience in daycare settings and as a substitute teacher. I originally began my studies in Elementary Education, but quickly realized I thrive most in smaller, more personal environments where I can provide individualized care, attention, and support to each child. I currently work as a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT), where I have the privilege of supporting children with disabilities by focusing on behavioral goals, developmental progress, and emotional support in a compassionate and nurturing way. I’m known for being patient, creative, detail-oriented, and someone who truly values transparency and communication with families. I also love incorporating arts & crafts, engaging activities, and positive experiences into the time I spend with children. I would love the opportunity to get to know your little ones and become a positive, dependable part of their lives. Please feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like references!

Caring for others is something that I have done all of my life. I worked as a home health aide for over thirty years helping both the elderly and children in my role. This included in the home and clinic settings for those who were medically fragile, neurotypical and non-neurotypical individuals. Outside of three children of my own (four if you include my husband), I have cared for over one hundred individuals with about half of those being children. I have my first aide and CPR certification, I am patient, timely, cook, clean, run errands, change diapers, potty train, manage behaviors and is a strong communicator. I take pride in my craft and can ensure the safety and well-being of your child/children. Thank you.
