Availability: short-term overnight support. I am a certified postpartum doula and infant nanny! :) Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! Experience: I have been in the childcare field full time as an infant nanny turned postpartum doula for 11 consecutive years now. I have cared for children as young as 12 hours old :) I share my most experience caring for the newborn - 18 month olds (baby led weaning, baby sign language, etc) but have plenty of experience with 2-5 year olds as well! I have worked with families of twins, children with behavioral challenges (ODD), children on the Autism spectrum and children who need extra assistance due to physical differences. My specialty is infant care! While babies are napping I am happy to help with light housekeeping. Education: B.S. in Childhood Development Birth-Kindergarten + Psychology. I am Infant+Adult CPR/First Aid certified and have SIDS safe sleep training. I practice the Reggio Emilia approach (child-directed and constructivist) as well as Montessori. Appropriate language and conscious discipline are important to me. About me: I love to travel! I have cared for families in MA,FL,GA & NC so far. I enjoy painting, being outdoors/hiking, swimming, dancing and eating healthy snacks. Transparency and open communication with families is key for me. If you'd like to get to know more details / background feel free to shoot me a message! ** Update: I have a 4hr day minimum, although I do not have to be physically present for all 4hrs if not needed. For postpartum care, 10hr shifts overnight / 24/7 care / travel care / surrogacy journeys / first time parent education! Feel free to message me anytime.
“Destiny is awesome! Highly recommend if you have a chance to work with her! She’s immediately warm and comforting to baby. She’s also very knowledgeable about child development and plays with baby in developmentally appropriate ways. Super professional and makes you feel comfortable that baby (6.5 months) is in great care. ”
I know how hectic life gets and I am here to make it a bit easier for you. I assist in keeping busy families running smoothly by providing caregiving services to those you love the most. My educational background in psychology and over 10 years' experience in human services ensures that you have someone working for you who will keep your loved ones engaged, safe and happy. When you choose me, you are choosing someone who will become an extension of your family. That is able to assist with not only the fun things but also those issues that are more challenging. As someone that believes in work hard play hard I can often be found relaxing on a Gulf Coast beach on my down time. I look forward to working with you!
Hi there! My name is Lilly and I am thrilled to be considered for the role of making your family's life just a little bit easier. Before I was anything I was an older sister, my experience with childcare began with two significantly younger sisters I still play a large role in raising. In addition to my personal experience, I have worked in volunteer roles as a tutor and summer camp academic instructor in a local children's home and with Hillsborough County Public Schools (if you need a homework helper, I'm your girl!!). In addition to the basics like CPR, I would say I'm formally certified in the arts of snack distribution, copycat Broadway performances of the songs from whatever show or movie your kids can't get enough of right now, arts and crafts and schedule adherence. I also am more than willing to tidy up while I'm over! (I'm great at cleaning too... not to brag or anything...) In terms of pets, I'm a lifelong animal lover! Cats, dogs, exotics, I love animals big and small! I have experience with dogs, guinea pigs and other rodents, fish and hermit crabs specifically (as my own pets over the years). However, I have cared for many cats before and if I'm given a care instructions list, I'm confident I can make friends with any critter.
Update: I will be working for my Friday family 3x a week for 2 months. (June-July) Will not be available Monday,Thursday, or Fridays before 5pm. Hi there! My name is Angelica and I’m an experienced caregiver with a background in early childhood education. I’ve worked as a teacher assistant and a toddler teacher at Best Friends for Kidz Daycare. I’ve also been a babysitter for several wonderful families over the years. As of June 2026, I will have an associates degree in general education from Hillsborough Community College. I also a mom to a sweet 2 year old, who occasionally joins me for care at a reduced rate of $15/hr (optional, and entirely up to parents). Currently, I babysit for a family every Friday caring for a 1-year-old, so at this time (2026), I’m unavailable Fridays before 5 p.m. I’m kind, patient, loving, and trustworthy, with a reliable car, CPR certification, and fluency in Spanish. I’m happy to provide references, including my long-term Friday family I’ve been with since October 2024. If you’re looking for someone dependable, nurturing, and engaging to care for your little one, I’d love to connect and see if we’re a great fit! Thank you for your time and consideration!💛
Currently experienced in caring for a 4-year-old girl and a 2-year-old boy, providing attentive care while supporting their daily routines, development, and individual needs My previous experience working as a unit clerk in an ICU at HCA strengthened my ability to remain organized, dependable, calm and attentive to important details. Understand the important of safety, communication, responsibility, and following instructions carefully. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and enjoy creating a warm, positive environment where children feel comfortable, cared for, and supported.
