Leslie M.
- 22 years paid experience

I have been a Nanny 22 years. I am able to walk into any situation and successfully handle everything needed. I have had the pleasure of working with all ages over years. I am the baby whisperer. I would love the opportunity to give you further details on my experience over the phone or in person. I have excellent references and I am a "5 star" nanny. I have had a National Background check and I have also had a DHR, fingerprint check. I felt this was the best way to ensure to future families that they are getting the Best Nanny for their Precious Angels. I believe ALL caretakers need to have both of these background checks completed. I also have worked for doctors and have a military pass.

Oriana T.
- 5 years paid experience

Hey there! My name is Oriana. I'm an experienced, nurturing, and dependable babysitter with a passion for providing a comforting and welcoming environment for children. I come from a diverse background and am fluent in English and Spanish. Family means everything to me, that's why I'm so passionate about babysitting because it allows me the opportunity to make a positive impact in children’s lives and contribute to their well-being. It also contributes to my own personal growth as learning from and caring for others can surprisingly help us understand and care for ourselves better. I hold a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in English. This has helped me recognize the importance of child development stages, including emotional and social learning. I strive to create a compassionate and supportive atmosphere, allowing children the space to feel comfortable sharing their emotions and needs. I aim to foster their growth as individuals, helping them navigate the ups and downs of everyday life with resilience and confidence. With a creative and imaginative mindset, I love engaging kids in educational and entertaining activities such as arts and crafts, reading, storytelling, movement and dance, imaginative play, and helping make homework time an enjoyable and stimulating experience. I am patient, adaptable, and adept at handling various situations that may arise when caring for children. Safety is always my top priority which is why I will be renewing my Adult and Pediatric First AID/CPR certification this month. I emphasize building strong relationships with both children and parents as I believe open and clear communication are key in building trust. I recognize and celebrate the individuality of every child. I take the time to understand the child’s personality, interests, and preferences in order to provide personalized care and support. I have experience working with children of various ages and temperaments, which has taught me the importance of tailoring my approach to suit each child’s needs. I also pay close attention to parents’ instructions and guidelines; making sure to understand their expectations regarding things like meal prep, bedtime routines, screen time and any specific rules they’ve set. I am here to provide reliable and trustworthy care for your little ones, ensuring their well-being and happiness. Let's create a positive and enjoyable experience for your family! My schedule is flexible so please feel free to reach out.

Aleksia J.
- 2 years paid experience

I truly enjoy being a sitter because I love supporting children as they grow, explore, and learn. Each child has their own personality and needs, and I find it rewarding to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can thrive. Being part of those small but meaningful moments—whether it’s helping with a new skill, guiding play, or just making them feel secure—brings me a lot of joy. I have extensive experience working with children of all ages, particularly toddlers and preschoolers. In addition to babysitting, I have two past professional experiences working in daycare settings, where I cared for groups of children, managed daily routines, and supported early learning and development. These roles taught me patience, creativity, and how to handle multiple responsibilities while keeping children engaged and safe. I am CPR and First Aid certified, giving me the ability to respond quickly and calmly in emergencies. My background has also equipped me with skills in communication, conflict resolution, and age-appropriate activities that keep children active and happy. Parents can count on me to be dependable, responsible, and attentive to both their children’s needs and their household routines. Overall, I love being a sitter because it combines my passion for caring for children with my professional skills and training. I look forward to the opportunity to provide safe, engaging, and supportive care for families who need someone they can trust.
