Isabel $26 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in El Portal, FL
I've always had a deep passion for working with children, a passion that's been with me since my early years. My journey began as a teacher's assistant and tutor, and I later became a dedicated daycare worker for a year and for nearly seven years now, I've had the privilege of being a Nanny. What I find most fulfilling is being a part of a child's early developmental stages, shaping them for future success in school and life. I'm committed to fostering their growth, with a particular focus on activities that promote motor skills, sensory perception, and brain development. Understanding the unique needs of each age group is at the core of my caregiving approach. I want parents to feel confident and secure in my care, knowing that their children are safe & also happy & engaged. I aim to be more than just a nanny; I strive to be an integral part of the family. Thank you for taking the time to read, and I hope you'll consider me to be a part of your child's journey!
Jeamy $16 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I'm Jeamy! I'm a dedicated mom and dog lover with a deep passion for caring for others. Originally from the Dominican Republic, I have experience looking after my own daughter and pets, and I truly enjoy providing attentive, loving care. Currently, I work as a front desk supervisor, but I'm looking to do something extra—something I love and comes naturally to me: taking care of children and pets. When you trust me with your loved ones, they become part of my family too! What I Offer: Child Care: I have experience with kids of all ages and love engaging them in fun and educational activities like reading, arts and crafts, singing, dancing, and helping with homework. Pet Care: As a devoted dog mom of two, I understand the importance of proper care, whether it’s walking, feeding, administering medication, or just giving them plenty of love and playtime. Senior Companionship: While I don’t have formal experience in senior care, I’m eager to learn and provide companionship and support. If you're looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver for your child, pet, or loved one, I’d be happy to help!
