$20 per hour for 1 child
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

Mia $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Mia and I am 20 years old. I just earned my Associates Degree and am looking to continue my education in nursing. I am offering childcare and light household services. I currently work part time as a nursing assistant at Baptist Hospital in the postpartum unit, where I get to work with newborns and their families every day. I also have experience working at a summer camp with children ages 3–6, which I absolutely loved! I’m very patient, caring, and easygoing, and I love keeping kids entertained with fun activities, games, and crafts while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m responsible and attentive, but I also want kids to feel like they can be themselves and have fun with me. I’d love to help make things easier for your family and make sure your little ones are taken care of.

Hi families! My name is Lauren, and I've spent several years working with children. I've also taken care of dogs, so your furry friends are in good hands! My responsibilities include ensuring safety, providing engaging activities, and maintaining a clean environment. As a childcare provider, I understand that safety is the top priority. I always make sure that the children and pets in my care are supervised at all times, and that the environment is safe and secure. In addition to safety, I also prioritize providing engaging activities that are appropriate for each child's age and interests. Whether it's playing games, doing arts and crafts, or going on outdoor adventures, I strive to make sure that each child has a fun and fulfilling experience. And of course, I understand the importance of maintaining a clean and organized space, so I always make sure to tidy up after activities and ensure that any messes are promptly taken care of.

$20 per hour for 1 child
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.
