Hi my name is Raven and I am a former 2nd grade teacher in Orlando. I love spending my free time reading, volunteering at the YMCA, and spending time with family and friends.

Raven was amazing. We hired her last minute to watch our kids when we were in town for a family wedding. She was wonderfully responsive, warm, flexible and energetic. We have 4 kids and she wasn't fazed at all. I wish we lived closer so we could have her sit for us again!

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.

Maria looked after our children really well while we were working. She was great company for a two year old and a twelve year old! We would recommend her highly.

I’ve been caring for children since the 1900s :) & four decades later, still adore every stage... newborns-teens. Caring for kids isn’t something I do on the side, it’s been my life’s work, and I bring that dedication into every home I support. I earned my degree in Elementary Education in 1996, then taught at the JCC in Maitland where I worked with the same infants through their toddler years. My co-teacher and I supported their development through sign language, early communication skills, potty training, sleep routines and structured play. I’m a very hands-on caregiver. I love engaging kids in activities that spark curiosity, movement and imagination. Walks outside, sports, crafts, reading time, sensory play and age-appropriate learning are all part of my day. Families trust me because I’m consistent, mature, dependable and fully present with their children. ~°~ My schedule is flexible... including overnights for newborn.

Melissa is amazing with kids! I have a 6 yrs old boy and 3.5 years old girl. She made them feel so comfortable and played so many fun games with them. She is reliable and punctual! My kids love her and ask for her to come back again to play with them. Highly recommend her! :)

Hi, I’m Trinity! I’m 23 and have always loved working with kids. Growing up with four younger brothers (two with autism), I gained a lot of hands-on experience early on. I have experience caring for babies, toddlers, and school-age children through both nannying and my current daycare role. I’ve worked with children as young as 7 months and have strong experience handling multiple children at once, especially in busy daycare settings where keeping routines running smoothly is key. I’m reliable, patient, and bring a fun, positive energy. I’m happy to help with light cleaning, homework, and keeping things organized so your home runs easier. I have my own car, so I’m dependable when it comes to transportation and punctuality. I truly enjoy what I do and always make sure kids feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

My son (who is 17 months) daycare had a lapse in availability and he had to stay home with me for a week while I worked. My dad reached out to Trinity who was more than accommodating on such short notice. She hopped on a call with me to go over basics. My son immediately fell in love with her upon meeting. She was prompt, professional, friendly, and fun! She even helped with household chores which was unexpected but so appreciated. I would use her again in a heartbeat and will when we are needing additional help watching out boy! I highly highly recommend!

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.

Hire Lina without hesitation! Lina is the epitome of a compassionate and dedicated caretaker. Her knowledge, unwavering work ethic, punctuality, and sense of responsibility set her apart. Lina worked as our nanny from September 2022 to July 2023, my daughter, who is almost 2.5, started school in July, and still asks for her beloved Lina. As our nanny, Lina exceeded all of our expectations. She spent hours outdoors with our daughter, took her to the library, introduced her to swimming, and engaged them in constant reading, laughter, and play. Lina was never glued to her phone; her undivided focus was always on our child's needs, development, and happiness. What impressed us most was that Lina was consistently educating herself, broadening her understanding of a child's needs and applied her findings to enhance our child's well-being. We are immensely grateful to have found Lina and had her become such a significant part of our lives. She is truly exceptional, and we couldn't have asked for a better caregiver.

I pride myself on my being very dependable, honest, mature, and I get great satisfaction out of helping others. I adore spending time with children and have 19+ years of experience caring for toddlers and infants. I am a 40 year old mother of 2 small furry dogs. Casper and Smokey are the love of my life. I have been around children my whole life so it comes very natural to me. All of my friends children call me Aunt April because I spoil and treat them as if they were my own. I am always looking for new, fun and creative ways to entertain children and pass the information down to my family and friends! I am currently learning sign language for infants, as I have experienced some amazing progress with children learning some basic signs and signals! I was a babysitter since a wee little kid and was actually a full and part time nanny for families in the many areas I have lived. It was a joy to watch the babies grow and bond with you! I am definitely a hands-on personality type and love to play with the children, engage in activities, sports, crafts, take for walks outside, help with homework or anything they prefer to help stimulate their minds as opposed to just sitting them in front of the tv all day. I also keep a "Nanny Journal" to document all of the activities performed that day to include all feedings, bottles, diapers, Rx administered, household cleaning, pet-care, or any other special notes to parents about anything important! I used to volunteer frequently at my old church in Nebraska (for several years) in the childcare room so I could watch the newborn babies. I have worked at an animal hospital in the past and became very experienced in many aspects of the veterinary field and can administer vaccinations, bathe, partially groom (depending on breed) give subQ fluids, give shots and other special needs. I am Red Cross certified in BOTH human AND pet first aid and CPR!! I know people cannot believe their is a class for dogs, but I am serious in knowing everything I can to save my "children's" life! Children and dogs are my passion and I’m always striving to learn more and help them flourish! I am taking COVID seriously to protect myself and others.

I would reccommend April over and over again. We have used her many times over the last couple of years and the kids adore her. She is responsible, creative, outgoing and I trust her completely with my kiddos. 5 stars and more

It was such a great idea having a nanny with us at the theme parks! Miss Devin spent the day with our family at Hollywood Studios. The kids absolutely loved her! She stayed with our youngest while he napped in his stroller and kept him entertained after he woke up. This gave the rest of our family some time to go ride the more adventurous rides that our toddler is still too young to do. I would absolutely recommend Miss Devin to any family, especially families with younger children who could benefit from having an extra set of hands while visiting Disney!

This was our first time using sittercity and allowing someone outside of family to watch our kids . We were nervous , but Shauna not only reassured us , but exceeded any expectation we could have. She was very informative and also punctual. When we texted to check on the kids she responded immediately and she also texted to let us know what the kids were doing and if she had any concerns . Thank you Shauna for watching our kids . My daughter enjoyed her and said she would want her to babysit again .
