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.

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!

I'm an energetic babysitter with about 13 years experience. I have much experience in early childhood teaching with an AS in Early Childhood Education. I have passed all background checks to work in the preschool setting at three different local establishments over the past 8 years. I love to incorporate music (I play guitar) and outdoor exercise with varied activities when caring for children and I would love to meet your family see if we would be a good fit! Thanks!

Kara was one of the best nannies I could’ve ever asked for! She was great with my two boys from keeping them active to helping with homework. Kara really cares for children and loves what she does and it shows! Good sitters are hard to come by and Kara isn’t just a sitter she’s a caregiver and teacher. If you want someone who cares then you want Kara!

Ava D., Child Care in Hawthorne, FL 32640 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Ava Domlija, and I am a freshman at UF. I am looking for a part-time babysitting job, and I have flexible hours. I have had 4 years of experience with children ranging from ages 2-10. I have volunteered in a preschool during high school where I acted as an assistant to the teachers and had my own responsibilities to supervise the children and assist during mealtimes. I also worked as an assistant gymnastics coach for children as well a camp counselor during the summers where it was my job to teach children gymnastics and play games with them. I love being with children as I am studying elementary education now in college, and in high school, I took an early childhood class all 4 years where I earned a state certification, ECPC, and a national certification, CDA. I would love to be able to work some hours as a babysitter for your children!

Jocelyn R., Child Care in Hawthorne, FL 32640 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! My name is Jocelyn, and I am an undergraduate senior at the University of Florida. Working with children has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember, and it truly is my passion. I have seven years of experience caring for children, including four years of paid experience, and I currently work as a pediatric medical assistant. In this position, I interact daily with children from birth to 19 years old, which has strengthened my ability to provide compassionate, attentive, and safe care. I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children grow and learn. I strive to create a positive, fun, and nurturing environment where children feel safe and encouraged to be themselves. I spent three years as a summer camp counselor working with children ages 4–13 from diverse backgrounds. This experience taught me how to manage groups, resolve conflicts, plan engaging activities, and adapt to different personalities and needs. I have been CPR and First Aid certified for about six years now! Safety is always my top priority. I am patient, creative, and dependable, with strong communication and conflict-resolution skills. I am comfortable helping with homework, keeping children engaged in activities, and maintaining a clean and organized environment. Additionally, I plan to attend medical school to become a pediatric oncologist, which reflects my long-term dedication to working with and advocating for children.

Kylie S., Child Care in Hawthorne, FL 32640 with 8 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

I am very outgoing and always make sure the kids I take care of have fun :)
