I’ve been caring for children since I was fourteen, and four decades later it’s still the work that brings me the most joy. I earned my degree in Elementary Education from the University of Florida in 1996, then taught at the JCC in Maitland where I worked with infants through toddlers. 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. I keep detailed daily notes that cover feedings, bottles, diapers, naps, medications, activities and any observations parents need to know. I have more than 40 years of experience with infants, toddlers and young children, and I still adore every stage. 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. most important.

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.

My name is Carolyn Richard, and I currently live in Orlando, Florida. I graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2012 and have been a full time nanny ever since. My extensive experience in elementary education as well as my passion for creating a stimulating environment for growth and development makes me a stand out nanny. I enjoy guiding children through their developmental milestones and learning what peaks their interests. I take pride in creating educational activities centered around their interests. I have had the pleasure of student teaching in several classrooms from kindergarten to high school special needs. I put a lot of emphasis on exploring outdoors, creating, and reading. I am a crafty person and love to create as well as garden. I also enjoy baking and cooking, and I excel at coming up with hands on learning activities. I am an organized person that enjoys creating a schedule that can flow seamlessly. My childcare philosophy is to teach kindness. I am friendly but firm on the rules and happy to explain to children why it is important to follow the rules and maintain their safety. I like to teach kids through fun activities that capture their interests. I also teach personal responsibilities and manners. My goal is to help raise kind and capable humans that can effectively express themselves and learn to help care for themselves.

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.

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.

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!
