Erika G., Nanny in Polk City, FL 33868 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Erika! I’ve been babysitting for more than 4 years, I’m CPR/AED & first aid certified and have completed my early childhood development certification with DCF. I’m comfortable cooking, helping with chores and homework. During high school I took medical classes and early childhood. I’ve learned how to make age appropriate lessons for children through my DCF certification, so I’m familiar with learning activities. Outside of babysitting I pet sit so I’m comfortable around animals! A few things about myself, I enjoy crafting/scrapbooking, going to the beach or walking the lake, baking/cooking, shopping and traveling! Some of my favorite activities to do with the kids I babysit are going to the park, reading, crafts and creative play. Hoping to meet you and your family soon!

Vanessa J., Nanny in Polk City, FL 33868 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi there! I’m Vanessa, though most kids call me “Nessa.” I’m 27 years old and have a true passion for working with children of all ages. Whether it’s for a date night or regular care, I bring years of experience as both a nanny and babysitter through various childcare companies, along with hands-on experience in daycare settings and as a substitute teacher. I originally began my studies in Elementary Education, but quickly realized I thrive most in smaller, more personal environments where I can provide individualized care, attention, and support to each child. I currently work as a Registered Behavioral Technician (RBT), where I have the privilege of supporting children with disabilities by focusing on behavioral goals, developmental progress, and emotional support in a compassionate and nurturing way. I’m known for being patient, creative, detail-oriented, and someone who truly values transparency and communication with families. I also love incorporating arts & crafts, engaging activities, and positive experiences into the time I spend with children. I would love the opportunity to get to know your little ones and become a positive, dependable part of their lives. Please feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like references!

She is a very sweet and down to earth woman. She gives NANA vibes and I felt like she was watching my kids more out of love than money. I will definitely be using her again!

Jessica D., Nanny in Polk City, FL 33868 with 24 years of paid experience

I have been in the field of Early Education for nearly twenty-five years working with children birth through fourteen with my primary age group being birth through five. During my twenty plus years, I worked in classrooms as a teacher as well as in homes as a Nanny. I have a degree in Early Education and Management as well as a certification for Early Care and Inclusion. I am certified as a First Responder in Florida, I have a valid US passport, valid Florida driver's license, and a clean criminal and driving record. Through my work, I have worked with multiple age groups at once and have been successful with multitasking and still making sure everyone gets one-on-one attention. Additionally, I have taught many young children sign language which has helped to reduce frustration and tantrums later as older infants and toddlers.

Lilia R., Nanny in Polk City, FL 33868 with 5 years of paid experience

I came to this wonderful country in 2014 with many dreams and the desire to build a new life filled with opportunities. Since then, I have had the privilege of working in schools throughout my entire journey here, dedicating my time to caring for and supporting young children. I began my career at Trinity School, and later continued my professional journey at The Nest School, where I have gained valuable experience working with young children and being part of their early learning and development. I am a warm, patient, responsible, and caring person. I believe that children learn best when they feel safe, loved, respected, and encouraged to explore the world around them. I especially enjoy creating fun and meaningful experiences through art, crafts, gardening, and creative activities. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I enjoy sharing language and culture with children in a natural and positive way. After many years working in schools, I continue to feel that caring for children is more than a job—it is an opportunity to make a positive difference in their lives. I would love to bring my experience, creativity, patience, and genuine love for children to a family that is looking for someone they can trust and feel comfortable with.
