I am looking a full-time position supporting families with childcare and household management needs. With over 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages and assisting families of varying sizes, I bring both reliability and dedication to my work. For the past five years, I have held long-term, full-time roles (40+ hours per week) that combined childcare with broader family and property management responsibilities. I am flexible with scheduling, open to travel, and available for overnight stays as needed. In addition to providing safe, nurturing care, I design and lead age-appropriate educational and recreational activities including creative play, arts and crafts, early literacy and math games, outdoor exploration and structured routines that promote both learning and fun. I believe in fostering curiosity, encouraging independence, and supporting developmental milestones in a positive, engaging way. Beyond childcare, I enjoy cooking, cleaning and creating organized, welcoming environments. My background in Early Childhood Development and Human Services has given me a strong foundation in understanding both children’s needs and family dynamics. I have also completed an internship with the Public Defender’s Investigative Office working with juveniles, which strengthened my skills in communication and support. My passion for service extends to volunteering, where I have contributed to children’s equine therapy programs, senior centers, animal fostering, NAMI awareness efforts and Meals on Wheels. I take pride in being loving, energetic, attentive and highly organized. With the right preparation, I believe every situation can be managed smoothly. I hold a valid driver’s license and am committed to providing families with dependable, compassionate and proactive support.

Hi my name is Teresa and I’m a retired pharmacist of 25 years, but more importantly I’m a grandma of a 2 year old and 1 month old. My daughter lives in Chicago so I’m only able to visit about once every 3 months. I had the privilege of helping her with her first baby and quickly became refreshed on changing diapers, feeding, nap time, bedtime, bath time, tummy time and just plain grandma time. It’s brought back so many great memories of growing up and babysitting and my love for caring for children. When I was 12, I babysat 5 children all under the age of 7. I fed them breakfast, lunch, and took them swimming. I think I made a dollar an hour, but I absolutely loved it!!!! I continued to babysit until I got to college and I just didn’t have the time for it anymore. I always wanted a job where I worked with children. Actually my first job as a pharmacist was at City of Hope hospital, an oncology hospital, where I worked in the children’s ward. I felt like I really made a difference just by talking to the children and offering a hand to hold during chemo. I’ve been retired now a few years and believe it’s never too late to start a new career. I believe with my experience as a mother of 2 and grandmother of 2, I have a lot to offer. I am a very compassionate and patient person, not to mention very active. When I’m in Chicago with my grandson I go down the slides with him and climb the jungle gym with him. I love it!! Being around children is a blessing. I can guarantee you I’ll put in 110% into watching your children.

Hi! My name is Maggie and I’m a responsible, energetic, and reliable sitter in the St. Augustine area. I’m a recent college graduate with a bachelors degree in Biological Sciences and while I am newer to formal babysitting, I do have experience caring for my nieces and nephews ranging from the ages of 4 months to 15 years old. I enjoy caring for toddlers and older kids and enjoy staying active through play, crafts, or outdoor activities. I have professional work experience as a lifeguard and veterinary technician, great communication skills, and I take safety and reliability very seriously. I’m comfortable preparing meals, helping with homework, light housework, and school/after school activity drop-off/pickup. I am currently looking for part-time babysitting opportunities and would love to help out a great family!

I previously worked as a daycare lead teacher and had ten 18-36 month olds to look after each day. It has been the most rewarding experience I’ve had so far in my professional education career. I am currently a first grade teacher, and would love the opportunity to further my influence on kids learning and development experiences. I have a variety of experiences in childcare with ages ranging from infants to middle school children. That includes meals, toileting/diapers, sleep training, social emotional development, engaging art/sensory skill activities, and much more! Please reach out if you have any questions. I am a certified teacher in Florida, and had to do a background check through my school district, hence why I have yet to do one through this app. I also have childcare references upon request.

Hi, I’m Ashanti! I’ve been caring for children since I was 10 years old, taking care of my younger brothers, which has given me years of hands-on experience in understanding kids’ needs and personalities. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m always eager to learn more about child development to provide the best care possible. I’m passionate about creating a fun, safe, and supportive environment where kids can grow and learn. I love engaging with children through play, crafts, and helping with their daily routines. I’m excited to connect with your family and help meet your childcare needs!

Hi! I’m a caring and experienced early childhood educator with a Master’s in Montessori Education and more than 10 years of hands-on experience working with young children. I’ve spent many years in Montessori classrooms helping little ones learn through independence, exploration, and play — and now I’m excited to bring that same nurturing, calm, and supportive approach into a home environment. In recent years, I’ve been homeschooling my own children — one who has graduated and is now in college, and another who is currently a junior in high school — giving me valuable one-on-one teaching and mentoring experience across multiple ages and learning styles. I love creating a warm, consistent routine while also giving children space to discover, problem-solve, and grow at their own pace. Whether we’re reading stories, preparing snacks together, exploring outdoors, or practicing kindness and courtesy, my goal is always to support each child’s natural curiosity and confidence. I believe strong communication and partnership with families are essential, and I’m committed to providing a safe, joyful, and enriching space for your little one to thrive. I look forward to meeting your family and helping your child learn and grow every day!

I have 15 years of child care experience, ranging from being a babysitter, to working in a gym daycare, to being a lead teacher at a preschool! I have taken the 40 hours of training & passed the competency exams required to work in a daycare. I am also certified in children's & infants first aid/CPR. I have a passion for cooking, and would be happy to work in some meal prepping, or cooking within the home. I can help with chores and cleaning as well. I have reliable transportation, am pet-friendly, and a non-smoker. I'm looking to have a set schedule full-time or part-time, and I can offer the possibility of helping with some date nights here and there! I'm a big fan of gentle parenting and Montessori teaching, but I'm happy to adapt to any house rules or personal preferences. I do have a fully vaccinated 2-year-old girl I'd be intending on bringing. She is gentle with babies, and friendly with other children. I look forward to hearing from you!
