Find a babysitter in El Portal, FL

I’m a current 3rd year medical student interested in pursuing pediatrics and pediatric psychiatry. I am officially trained in CPR [Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) Basic Life Support (BLS)] for both adults and children. As part of my medical training, I have helped care for children of all ages in both outpatient and inpatient settings including those with learning differences or neurodiversity. As a middle child, I have experience with older and younger children which informed my approach to babysitting (and conflict management 😊). I am comfortable taking care of and working with both young and older children. On a personal note, I am a Florida native with immigrant parents from South America, thus I have a native proficiency in Spanish and I love soccer. Also, I have a background in art. I am open to preparing meals for children as long as any allergies, dietary restrictions, or preferences are disclosed in detail. I am comfortable with pets in the home if they are well-behaved/trained and have no history of causing any illness, injuries, or bites to others. For transparency: pet-sitting is not one of the services I offer. In addition, I have experience as a summer school teacher and tutor for middle school and high-school students. I offer tutoring for middle school, high school and college levels in the following areas: basic sciences, biology, general chemistry, biochemistry, anatomy/physio, psychology, neuroscience, history, writing, reading, college and medical school application essays, SAT/ACT/AP exam in the aforementioned subject areas, MCAT exam (behavioral science and CARS sections). I have experience tutoring since I was in middle school, high school, college and have continued to do so in medical school. For your convenience, I am more than happy to overlap tutoring with baby sitting depending on the number of children and their ages. For example, if there are two kids to be watched and the older one is being tutored, I would feel more comfortable if someone else was home supervising the other child if that child is very young at least for the duration of the tutoring session.

I am a dedicated mother of three boys with years of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, personalities, and needs. Being a mom has strengthened my patience, compassion, multitasking abilities, and instinct to create a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where children can thrive. I understand the importance of balancing emotional support, routines, academics, and daily care with warmth and consistency. My educational background is in child development and education. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Education from Florida International University, a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Nova Southeastern University, and an Educational Specialist degree in Reading K–12 from Nova Southeastern University. This strong academic foundation gives me a deep understanding of how children learn, grow, and develop both academically and emotionally. My combination of real-life parenting experience and advanced education allows me to provide thoughtful, attentive, and high-quality care.

Hi! My name is Clary. I’m a caring, dependable, patient, and responsible caregiver with previous nanny experience and a genuine love for working with children. I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and comfortable environment where kids can be themselves, learn, and have fun. I’m attentive to each child’s individual needs and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can truly trust with their children. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, meals and snacks, playtime, activities, light housekeeping related to the children, and keeping their space clean and organized. I’m also comfortable around pets and understand the importance of respecting each family’s routines, household rules, and parenting preferences. I’m reliable, organized, nurturing, and easy to communicate with. My goal is to make things a little easier for parents while making sure their children feel safe, cared for, and happy while they’re with me. I’m currently looking to connect with families who need a trustworthy and dependable nanny or babysitter, whether that’s for consistent care or occasional help. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see if I would be a good fit!

Hello, my name is Samantha. I am a after-school and summer camp counselor. I have been working in this position for a year. I am very patient and friendly.

Hi! My name is Neissa, and I’m a friendly and caring college junior studying biology. While I’ve officially babysat once, I have meaningful caregiving experience from helping care for my grandmother, who had Alzheimer’s, as well as my grandfather, who needed assistance with mobility. These experiences taught me patience, empathy, and how to be attentive to others’ needs. I also grew up with siblings, which helped me understand different family dynamics and how to be flexible and supportive in a home with multiple kids. In addition, I work as a student ambassador at my university, where I regularly lead group tours for middle and high school students. This role has given me strong experience managing groups of kids, getting their attention, and staying calm and positive under pressure. I speak three languages, love reading, and enjoy doing crafts and creative activities. I’m reliable, warm, and always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children.
