Hi there! I am a Nana who very much misses her grandchildren who live in NH. Chase is 11 and Cole is 13 but they live in NH. We live in Ruskin and I am not good at being retired - I really like to stay active and have interaction with children, especially babies and toddlers. I love all kinds of animals - we have two dogs and seven cats! I am available for date nights and on weekends. I have worked for five lovely families in the area and can provide written references from them. Several would be happy to chat with you by phone as well. I am kind, honest, loving, responsible and reliable. Babies and toddlers are my very favorite humans, and I have often been called “The Baby Whisperer”! I have been married for 47 years and have two grown sons. When they were growing up, our house was always the place to hang out, and we very much enjoyed getting to know all of their friends. Several of them still call me Mom, although they have moms of their own! I am certified by the Red Cross in Infant/ChildAdult CPR and First Aid and am fully vaccinated. My driving record is clean. Be sure to check out my Ratings and Reviews! Thank you for reading my information! Linda

Hi! My name is Ashley Boatwright, I am a 24 year-old from Atlanta, Ga. I graduated GA Southern University with a Business Administration Degree in Management in 2023 and relocated to FL upon my graduation. I have 11 years of combined experience in babysitting, nannying, and working in quality-rated daycares. I am currently a nanny for 3 girls age 2-7 and started when the youngest was a week old. This position included drop offs, pickups, extra curricular actives, household management, and everything in between. I am looking for a new position as the youngest will be starting preschool in August. I started babysitting in middle school and went on to work in child care in high school through an early childhood program where I worked my first job in a daycare setting. I floated between all rooms (3 months to 5 years old) and assisted the lead teachers with whatever was needed. This included feedings, changing, activities, learning time, nap time, and many other duties. Through this position, I gained 2 full-time nanny clients and many other babysitting jobs. These positions included babysitting individual kids, multiple children, infants, toddlers, elementary kids, and special needs children. During the summers I was a full-time/part-time nanny to 3 different families with kids aged 2-8. When I left for college I got a job at a quality-rated daycare in Statesboro where I was a co-lead teacher for a class of 1 to 2-year-olds. I then went on to nanny for a family with 2 kids aged 7-9 and was their nanny for 2 years. My duties included picking the kids up from school, taking them to extracurriculars, meal time, and homework, taking them out and about to get out of the house, and helping them navigate being a kid. I am extremely passionate about working with children and truly love being an extra hand that parents can rely on. As they say, raising kids takes a village and I would love to be a member of yours!
