Booked by 26 families in Homestead, FL

Hello there! My name is Fernanda, and I'm delighted to meet you. I'm 32 years young and originally from Brazil. I've had the joy of calling the US home for the past 8 years. During this time, I've had the pleasure of working as a full-time nanny for 3 years, and since then, I've been babysitting occasionally while pursuing my studies and exploring other professional opportunities. I must say, caring for children brings me immense joy as I truly cherish their company. In Brazil, I'm lucky to have two adorable nieces, aged 9 and 3, who mean the world to me. Whenever I'm back home, I spend every moment possible with them. They hold a special place in my heart. I understand how important your little one is to you, and I want to assure you that I'll care for them as if they were my own family. Your trust means everything to me.

Booked by 28 families in Homestead, FL

My name is Reyna, I am 38 years old woman, mom of 2, professional , caring, reliable, trustable, outgoing, hands on person. I have always felt great empathy with children and I usually interact with them in a fluid and comfortable way. I have also sitted of my nephews during the holidays and other occasions for more than 10 years. All these experiences have taught me how to keep a child safe and happy, but definitely when I became the mother of my daughter I experience all the responsibility and the privilege of attending a small child 24/7 and making her grow up healthy, safe, loved and happy, then I mastered all the skills to grow two amazing kids. Also in the last years I sitted for several children of different ages, from newborns to teenager of 12 years. As nanny I am loving, attentive, playful, fun, creative with learning activities through games, songs, experiments, crafts. At the same time, I am responsible for preparing food, bath, bedtime, as well as maintaining order and cleanliness. I am CPR certified, biIingual Spanish/English, I have my own transportation and a clean driving record. If you have any further question, please feel free to ask. I hope to hear from you soon.

Booked by 2 families in Homestead, FL

I'm a high-energy nanny and babysitter with 10+ years of professional childcare experience. Children naturally gravitate toward me—I’m fun, loving, and passionate about supporting their growth and development. I’ll follow and implement your family’s schedule and values, while creating engaging, age-appropriate activities. I tailor care to meet your child’s needs. My background includes working in preschools where I began as a Teacher Assistant and eventually became a Preschool Director. Every step of the way, I’ve been driven by a deep love for nurturing children as they learn, grow, and thrive.

This was my first time using the app and it was such a great experience. Melanee was so professional and really a great fit for our family. She planned a fun evening for my son and when I arrived to pick him up he did not want to leave. He said that he had the best time ever. We will definitely book again when we are back in town to visit family. The Hamilton Family Cleveland,Oh 3/24/23
