Hi! My name is Sophia Miller and I just recently moved to Gainesville. I have been babysitting even before I started driving and want a future in being a pediatric PA. I have been volunteering at a camp every year called Camp I Am Special for any ages with intellectual disabilities. I love being around children and helping families out for a date night or days away at work. I have babysat many families in my years of experience of all ages. I always make sure to clean up the house to help parents out with stress of their days. I am a very energetic passionate person and love engaging the kids in activities and games. I am a college student with minimum hours of classes Monday through Thursday and would love to work out hours to help out!

When I found Sophia, I couldn’t not hire her! My daughter absolutely adored spending time with her. Sophia was great at checking in with me and was eager to meet my daughter. I would definitely book with her again!

Kylie S., Child Care in Hawthorne, FL 32640 with 7 years of paid experience

I love being a babysitter because I genuinely enjoy building meaningful relationships with children and being someone they feel safe, comfortable, and happy around. I have several years of experience working with children of many ages, from babysitting in my neighborhood to working at the Boys & Girls Club, where I was responsible for groups of 20 children ages 6–13. I’ve also worked as a nanny for multiple families, including caring for elementary-aged girls and supporting one child with ADHD and autism by helping with after-school routines and homework. Through these experiences, I’ve learned how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable to each child’s individual needs. Being a sitter doesn’t feel like “work” to me, I love creating a fun, structured, and caring environment where kids feel supported and parents feel confident leaving their children in my care
