Charline cared for our two daughters (ages 2 and 1) while I worked from home, and she was truly wonderful. She is warm, responsible, and naturally attentive with young children. From the moment she arrived, she engaged them in play, helped with meals and snacks, supported nap time routines, and kept them happily occupied with a great balance of structure and fun. I also appreciated that she was thoughtful in helping tidy up after activities and consistently showed up with a calm, positive energy. It made a real difference knowing my children were safe, cared for, and genuinely enjoying their time with her while I was working. She was especially great at managing two toddlers at once—patient, playful, and tuned in to their needs. I would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for a reliable, caring, and engaging babysitter or nanny.

Mariella took care of my 4yo daughter for 11 hours while I was on a work trip in South Florida. All of my communication and interactions with her were excellent. She arrived early, sent photos of them together during the day and made sure my daughter felt safe and comfortable. She even packed a swimsuit and went in the pool with my daughter! I highly recommend Mariella and if I ever make it back to the area, I will definitely be reaching out to her!

Renee R., Child Care in Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301 with 20 years of paid experience

I have had experience in babysitting and nannying since high school (20+ years). Great references, my own transportation, and a super fun attitude! I love arts and crafts, swimming, and helping little ones expand their imaginations through play! I adore spending time with my Niece (6) and Nephew (8)! I am punctual, responsible, organized, and I enjoy cooking and keeping a tidy organized home. I speak Spanish conversationally, but I’m a bit rusty. Just recently returned home to Hollywood from working as a full time live-in nanny to 3 toddler girlies, who have now all gone back to school.

Renee was amazing with my kids! She was on time, respectful, and very calm and nurturing. My little ones felt comfortable with her right away, which says a lot. I appreciated her communication and how she kept things running smoothly. I would absolutely book her again and recommend her to other parents looking for someone reliable and caring!

Hi! My name is Elizabeth, and I’m a recent college graduate with a degree in Communications. Alongside my studies, I’ve built years of hands-on experience as a nanny, working with children of all ages—including toddlers and children with special needs. My background has given me patience, creativity, and the ability to adapt to each child’s unique personality and needs. In addition to my nanny work, I served as a Head Counselor at a summer camp, where I led activities, supervised staff, and created a fun, safe, and inclusive environment for large groups of children. These experiences strengthened my leadership, organization, and problem-solving skills, while deepening my love for working with kids. I bring warmth, energy, and reliability to every family I work with. Whether it’s helping with homework or planning engaging activities, I’m committed to helping children grow and thrive while giving parents peace of mind.
