Hi, I’m Trinity! I’m 22 and I’ve always loved working with kids. Growing up with four little brothers (two with autism), I got a lot of hands-on experience early on. I was basically the family babysitter, so looking after kids just became second nature to me. Since then, I’ve worked with families who had babies, toddlers, and even teenagers, and I’ve done everything from full-time nannying to helping out last minute. I’ve watched kids as young as 7 months old and also handled overnights and bigger groups. Parents I’ve worked for have said their kids “immediately fell in love” with me and that I bring a fun, positive energy into their homes. I also like to pitch in with things like light cleaning, keeping routines on track, and helping with homework — it just makes life easier for everyone. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids — whether that’s playing outside, doing arts and crafts, or just hanging out and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I know every family and every child is different, and I try my best to adjust to whatever you need.

Hi, I'm 30 years old and I'm from Peru. When I became in aunt at 14 years old, I discorvered that I liked children, so I started to spend time with my nieces and learn about babies and children. In their birthday parties, my sisters and parents around always asked me that I play with their kids, at that moment I realized that not only I like children, unless children like to spend time with me too. I worked as baby sitter in Peru while I was a university student (2012-2016), here in Orlando I work as occasional baby sitter, and I’ve worked with children from 8 months old to 12 years old. I have a diploma as children’s teacher and that’s what I’d like to do in a future.

Hi! I’m Lina. I was born and raised in Cartagena, Colombia. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Education with a concentration in English. I taught English as a second language to little kids for 5 years in bilingual schools in Colombia.One of my favorite parts of working with kids is discovering their unique personalities and talents. In addition, I received training in Positive Discipline which helps young children to learn the importance of belonging and social-emotional skills. Now, I’m living in the States. I’m a creative, responsible, and dedicated person. I love traveling and learning about different cultures. I also enjoy playing board games and outdoor activities . I take my responsibility to you and yours very seriously, always mindful and with respect. My last nanny experience was with an 8-month baby girl and a 3-year-old boy. We used the app Kinedu on a daily basis. This app allowed me to implement activities that support the kid’s milestones accordingly. Currently only available on weekends.

Hi, my name is Stephanie and I am a 20 year old student at UCF majoring in Nursing with a minor in Health Science !! I have worked as a babysitter with kids between 9 months - 11 years of age for about 3 years. I started babysitting when I was 15 and babysat my cousin who was around 6 months old. After one Summer of babysitting her for 5 days a week from 7 am - 5 pm, I fell in love with watching and caring for her, and it opened my eyes to the idea of becoming a babysitter. I used to work as a party event monitor for a bounce house company and at one of the events they were hosting I was the monitor. It was for a subdivision near the east side and my job was to make sure that the younger kids were not being trampled by the older kids that would pass by in the neighborhood. There was a little girl who was 2 years old and the bounce house was very high so she asked me to get in with her; I said yes of course and then got tricked into going several times with her throughout the obstacle course ;). Around the 5th time, her mother came up to me and asked me if I babysat because she saw the way that I interacted with the kids and could tell that I enjoyed it. From that experience, I was able to babysit her 3 and 11 year old daughters. I do have a car and I am certified in CPR and First Aid. My focus is on building trust with your child to be able to create a space that is open and fun. I enjoy making home-cooked meals, playing board games, listening to music, and karaoke, and taking drives to the ice cream shop and park. I am attentive and will work hard to make sure that the time your child and I will spend together will be colorful and entertaining. I look forward to meeting you and your family !! <3

Hi families! My name is Victoria and I’m so thrilled to be able to serve your family! I am a native Floridian, a former UCF Hospitality major, and an experienced childcare professional. I’ve been babysitting for over a decade, and nannying for the last three years. I’ve been a Sunday school teacher, a soccer coach, a cheerleading coach, a swim teacher, a tutor, a chef, a housekeeper, a driver, a counselor, and worn the many other hats that nannying offers. I have experience with infants all the way to age fifteen. I have always loved kids because they are so joyful, it always fills me up with happiness and a sense of greater purpose to care for them. I take great care to protect the joy and innocence of the children in my care. Safety is paramount, and you can have peace of mind knowing I am CPR and First Aid certified. A little bit about me… I love NFL football, reading, watching documentaries, taking walks around my neighborhood, and traveling—I’ve seen the world on the over twenty cruises I’ve been on in my life. I used to work for Disney, Universal, Regal Cinemas, and was a manager at Target, where I led a team of over fifty people. I left Target to pursue childcare full time. A fun fact about me is that I was featured on a Euro Disney Channel television show called ‘Game On’ about a decade ago. I am very family-oriented, and I am engaged to a wonderful fiancé who I’ll marry this November. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I hope you’ll entrust me with the care of your little ones!

Hi, I’m Kristine! I bring a strong background in childcare, education, and wellness—with over 6 years of experience working with children from infancy to age 10. My career began in the world of special needs care, where I worked as a direct support professional for children with autism, epilepsy, and other developmental differences. I supported both group settings and one-on-one family care, helping children build social-emotional skills, regulate their nervous systems, and safely engage in everyday life—from structured routines to fun community outings. That experience taught me the value of patience, presence, and truly meeting each child where they are. It also sparked a deep interest in emotional development and early learning, which led me to join an early childhood education center. I started as an assistant teacher and eventually became assistant director. There, I worked closely with children from infancy to Pre-K and helped lead a program that prioritized social-emotional growth, play-based learning, and strong caregiver relationships. Most recently, I worked as a medical assistant in functional medicine, where I gained even more understanding of the mind-body connection and how to support the wellbeing of children and families from a holistic perspective. Across every role, my focus has remained the same: creating safe, nurturing environments where children feel seen, supported, and free to be themselves. I believe in connection over correction, modeling calm behavior, and keeping things both structured and fun. I live just outside of Baldwin Park and have a clean driving record. I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family’s needs!
