As a teen ager I always enjoyed babysitting neighboring children after school and during the summers. I now have 3 grown children in their 20's. When they were in school I enjoyed participating in their many activities including Girl and Boy Scouts. I also voluntered in their religious program. For many years when my kids were younger I used to care for a few children after school and assist with their homework. I have experience working with special needs children and am very patient and caring. I have worked in a school with special needs children for 5 years. I also have two nephews with autism in which I watch occasionally. For the past year I have worked as a senior Caregiver in the Sarasota area and have gained a lot of experience. I understand that dependability is crucial. There would be no worries trusting your children in my care.

I am a full-time nanny M-F and am looking to do some date night sitting on occasional Fridays and Saturdays for families in Englewood or Venice. I have been caring for children, mainly newborns, infants and toddlers for over 20 years, as a babysitter on nights or weekends, as a care giver in a Church nursery, a nanny during the work week or as a lead teacher in a preschool for 3 years in the infant and toddler rooms. I have been a nanny full-time since 2014. I am a Credentialed Nanny through the International Nanny Association. I earned a Certificate in Infant/Toddler Development, a 2 year program at Trident Technical College in Charleston, SC, as well as having 2 BAs outside of childcare. I am an active, creative and nurturing nanny and sitter. I incorporate lots of reading, crafts, music, outdoor walks, trips to the library, parks, the aquarium, and play dates with other children and nannies when possible. I also use baby sign language until children can speak and express themselves and limit screen time for children depending on their ages. I am First Aid/AED/CPR certified for infants through adults. I have my Flu vaccination, Covid vaccine and TDAP vaccination to work with infants. I am comfortable working with pets in the home. I look forward to speaking with you. Thank you. Sincerely, Jen

My name is Miande (Mia for short) and I am looking to babysit for some families in the Sarasota county area. I’m 29 years old and I have my own car. I have been in childcare for the past 10 years as a nanny, babysitter, tutor, camp counselor and an au pair. It’s my passion to work with the youth, which is why I have an undergraduate and master’s degree in elementary education. This past year I’ve been substitute teaching in the county. I’m active, energetic and full of life, which makes me a great candidate for childcare. I enjoy building forts, swimming, playing board games and sports with the children I babysit. I’m honest, reliable, trustworthy and a great communicator. I’m available for something consistent, part-time or even one-time babysitting.

I’m a dependable, warm, and safety-focused caregiver with babysitting experience on and off since 2015. I’m the second oldest of four siblings, so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. I’m deeply passionate about helping children feel safe, happy, and supported. I hold two PhDs and work full-time for a large PBM company, which has strengthened my professionalism, time management, and communication skills. I maintain a fixed and predictable schedule, so conflicts are very unlikely. I’m comfortable supporting routines such as homework help, meals, bedtime, and light educational engagement. Parents often appreciate that I’m calm, attentive, and proactive. I’m also babysitting with purpose, proceeds from my childcare work help support charitable donations to mental health services for individuals and families in need. Mental health advocacy is very important to me, and I’m grateful to be able to give back in this way. I’m willing to do whatever it takes to keep children safe, healthy, and happy, and I treat every family with respect and care. I look forward to supporting your household and being someone you can truly trust. Have a well maintained car ✅
