Hello! My name is Mima (25), and I’m a dedicated, caring nanny with over three years of experience working with children from infancy through early adolescence. I love planning age-appropriate activities that support learning and development, and I’m always happy to help with meal prep, light housekeeping, and laundry to make daily routines smoother for families. I come with strong recommendations from multiple families I’ve worked with, and I’d be happy to provide references upon request. I’m excited to bring my experience and warm energy into a new home and look forward to the opportunity to support your family.

I love being a sitter because I get to be someone who brings the extra fun and care into these children’s lives while also keeping them safe and in their homes. I’ve babysat for my little siblings for years and babysat a Danish family with 3 little ones for over 3 years. It was an amazing experience and absolutely loved hanging with their children and watching them grow up! They have recently moved back to Denmark so I am looking for a family to happily watch and care for their children. I work well with all age groups, and do change diapers and can manage bath time or whatever parents feel most comfortable with me doing! I can cook and do clean at all times. I also have my own car, I drive a Kia Sorento, which is an SUV so it is a bigger vehicle and safer!

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
