“Caring, responsible, Native Spanish speaker, with good understanding of English babysitter with experience raising three children and a passion for creating safe, nurturing, and fun environments for kids.” I am a 53-year-old woman and a university graduate in my home country. Most of my childcare experience comes from raising my three children, who are now 25, 23, and 17 years old. Through this, I developed a deep passion for caring for children and supporting their growth at every stage. I truly enjoy creating safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where little ones can learn through play, crafts, music, and age-appropriate developmental activities. I am patient, caring, and very responsible, always attentive to children’s needs. I am physically and mentally healthy, family-oriented, and raised with strong values. I am fully documented to live and work in the U.S., have my own vehicle, and hold a clean driver’s license. CPR & First Aid certified through the American Red Cross. Certifications are available and up to date. My native language is Spanish, and I can communicate effectively in English. Families also appreciate that I can expose children to Spanish through songs, games, and everyday interaction if desired. I am fully available on Wednesdays (all day). On other days, my availability is mainly in the afternoons and evenings, but I am open to arranging a schedule that works best for your family.

Natalie U., Child Care in Merritt Island, FL 32953 with 4 years of paid experience

I have child care experience in nannying, babysitting, and preschool and have worked with children aged 6 months-5 years. I currently attend UCF where I am in my final year earning a B.S. in Early Childhood Development and Education. I also possess a Florida Child Care Staff Credential awarded through DCF. Additional to my CPR and first aid certifications, I have individualized experience working with children with severe food allergies, as well as previous kitchen and customer service work. I am truly passionate about early childcare, I stay active in my personal time and enjoy playing with children outside and helping them get dirty under the Florida sunshine! I understand the importance of exposure to nature, as well as the sensorial benefits of outdoor play and exploration. Early exposure to reading, literacy, and phonics is also crucial for this age range- I put a large emphasis on fun and engaging ways to help children learn the many different phonemes as well as print awareness. I may be a great fit for your family if you are looking for someone to: - Expose your child to various environments (parks, beaches, libraries, small groups) - Set an example of healthy practices such as nutrition and an active lifestyle - Help with chores around the house or run errands - Give undivided, individual attention to your little one - Have a flexible schedule open to change
