Stephanie B.

Hi, my name is Stephanie and I am a 20 year old student at UCF majoring in Nursing with a minor in Health Science !! I have worked as a babysitter with kids between 9 months - 11 years of age for about 3 years. I started babysitting when I was 15 and babysat my cousin who was around 6 months old. After one Summer of babysitting her for 5 days a week from 7 am - 5 pm, I fell in love with watching and caring for her, and it opened my eyes to the idea of becoming a babysitter. I used to work as a party event monitor for a bounce house company and at one of the events they were hosting I was the monitor. It was for a subdivision near the east side and my job was to make sure that the younger kids were not being trampled by the older kids that would pass by in the neighborhood. There was a little girl who was 2 years old and the bounce house was very high so she asked me to get in with her; I said yes of course and then got tricked into going several times with her throughout the obstacle course ;). Around the 5th time, her mother came up to me and asked me if I babysat because she saw the way that I interacted with the kids and could tell that I enjoyed it. From that experience, I was able to babysit her 3 and 11 year old daughters. I do have a car and I am certified in CPR and First Aid. My focus is on building trust with your child to be able to create a space that is open and fun. I enjoy making home-cooked meals, playing board games, listening to music, and karaoke, and taking drives to the ice cream shop and park. I am attentive and will work hard to make sure that the time your child and I will spend together will be colorful and entertaining. I look forward to meeting you and your family !! <3

Hi! My name is Jessica, and I'd be delighted to work as your caregiver! I recently moved back to Florida to be closer to family permanently. I have years of experience working at Montessori schools and as both a part-time and full-time nanny with children from infants to young adults. I am certified by the American Heart Association Basic Life Support (CPR and AED) Program. From 2013-2014, I worked as a full-time caregiver with a 2.5 - 3-year-old, and as a part-time caregiver with a child from when she was 16 - 24 months, in addition to her brother who was a newborn. From 2018-2019, I worked part-time as a nanny with an infant from when he was a newborn = 6 months old. From 2023-2024, I took care of another infant from when she was 1 - 8 months old, part-time. From 2025-2026, I also worked part-time as a caregiver with an infant from when she was a newborn - 8 months. In 2024, I earned my PhD in English from Northwestern University and taught as an Adjunct Professor of English at St. Xavier University in Chicago, IL throughout last semester. In 2011, I graduated from Cornell Universtiy, where I double-majored in English and Spanish, so I thoroughly enjoy reading and would be happy to promote a creative, literary environment. In addition, I am a big fan of the outdoors and sports, so I'd be happy to engage interatively, as a caregiver, as well! I truly enjoy working with children, and I would love to help in any way I can. I am a non-smoker and very responsible. Please feel free to message me here. Thank you, Jessica

Jessica is an absolute treasure! Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about newborn/infant care she was incredibly receptive to our care plan and took direction with the highest level of respect and understanding. Another aspect that my wife and I appreciated about Jessica was her communication and punctuality. We were sad to move cities for work otherwise, we would have continued to employ her! 10/10

Jolanta was amazing in every way! So interactive with my child and came with ideas and suggestions of how to play and create with them and I had beautiful artwork from my child upon my return. She is warm and authentic and I felt in the most trustworthy and loving hands. Can’t wait to work with her again!

I've been working in childcare since December of 2022. Specifically at ladybird academy and for the past 3 years I have mostly worked with one year olds and that is the age that I have the most experience with, but I have also been around school aged, toddlers, and even infants. I can provide cleaning, cooking, entertaining the children. Reading to them, singing songs, dramatic play. I love kids and I currently still work at the daycare, but I am currently trying to branch out into other childcare areas! I am CPR trained and it will be renewed sometime in February 2027.

Hi! My name is Cindy. I moved from Delaware to The Villages a few years ago. Upon moving to The Villages I worked as a nanny for a family that had 2 sons - 9 months old and 2 years old. Unfortunately the father had a job transfer and they relocated out of state. Since then I have had several babysitting jobs for children ages infant to 13 years old. I am college educated and retired as a personal care assistant for children with special needs in the pre-school through 6th grade school level. Prior to that I was a pre-school teacher and worked with 2-5 year olds. I am a very healthy, reliable, loving, caring, friendly and upbeat person. I am also very creative and I will bring fun and excitement to your child's day. I am CPR/First Aid certified, TB tested, non-smoker, and I have a clean driving record. I am an animal lover and have a Maine Coon cat named Bodie (although he thinks his name is Mommy's Baby). I also cook, clean, garden, do laundry, will walk a dog and use my car to drive around locally to do errands for you. I will also pick up your child from school or after school activities and help with homework. I am eager to hear from you regarding this position. References will gladly be provided to you upon request. Thank you for reading my story.
