Tracy Seminole
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hello families! My name is Tracy. I’m a mother, grandmother, and experienced caregiver with a background in pediatric nursing. I’ve spent many years caring for infants, babies, and toddlers and truly enjoy supporting children during these important early years. My pediatric nursing education and clinical experience gave me a strong foundation in child safety, health, and early development. Families often appreciate the calm, confident approach I bring to childcare, along with the added reassurance of my medical background. As both a mom and grandmother, I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident with the person caring for their child. I focus on creating a warm, safe environment where children feel secure and supported. I’m very comfortable with infant and toddler care, including feeding, diapering, nap routines, and supporting developmental milestones. I enjoy reading with children, outdoor walks, music, and play that encourages curiosity and early learning. Parents often tell me they feel at ease leaving their child with me because I’m calm, attentive, and experienced in recognizing children’s needs and keeping them safe. I live in Seminole and am currently available for part-time childcare with infants or toddlers.

I have over a decade of experience caring for children from birth through young adults. I have virtually infinite patience, am attentive, interactive, and always do my best to exceed the expectations of the families I work with. I am a non-smoker, have reliable transportation, and am frequently available for evening, weekend, and overnight care on short notice. Prior to attending college and pursuing my bachelor's degree in business administration, I was contemplating a career in education, completed training to become a preschool teacher, and began babysitting for several local families. Though I am now in the information technology field full-time I continue to provide childcare services as my schedule allows. I specialize in last minute care, families visiting the area, date nights, one time, and occasional evening and weekend care needs and always welcome creative assignments. I'm fine with caring for mildly ill children and would be willing to discuss other specialty situations such as working with special needs children and traveling with children on a case by case basis. I enjoy everything from art projects and bedtime stories with a preschooler to subtly shadowing a teen who needs supervision while out of the house. I have a very mild-mannered personality, but enforce rules as necessary. I take safety seriously and have current certification in Infant/Child/Adult CPR and First Aid, as well as specialty training for water-based emergency situations and Epi-Pen administration. Examples of what I've been hired for include: *In-home care at child's home (day/evening/overnight/week-long) *Summer camp instructor (groups of 10+) *Day trips to theme parks and other area locations when parents didn't want to go or needed an extra pair of hands *House sitting and monitoring teens while parents were out of town *Chaperoning a teen to Germany for two weeks as she participated in a film project My rate is negotiable based upon the number of children I'm expected to care for, length of care, and what I'm expected to do while I'm with the children. I look forward to hearing from you to discuss details of your childcare needs!

Hi! My name is Victoria and I am currently a freshman at SPC double majoring in political science and journalism. I am offering child care and household services. Since the age of 16, I have worked with lots of children ranging from infants to pre teens. My jobs have ranged from as needed baby sitting gigs to full time nannying 5 days a week. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school and activities, tutoring, overnight and weekend stays, and summer activities. I am passionate about creating fun, safe, and engaging environments for the kids I get to work with. I’m comfortable working with kids of all ages and levels of care, including special needs. I have my own transportation, and I’m more than willing to be proactive with light household tasks. I am very reliable and have open availability this summer. I can provide excellent references upon request!

$23 per hour for 1 child

I am an accomplished single mother with of one eighteen year old son. My education includes an A.A and Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and Management. I am forty-three years old and I have cared for children since my early teen years. My experience also includes making sure that children are comfort, safe, and loved. I have previous CPR training and I am willing to gain an updated certification. I understand that it takes patience to care for children and I believe that my experience of raising my son on my own has imparted a gracious amount of patience. It is important to me to create an environment and atmosphere where children are adored, but also foster structure. I love to plan ways for children to learn early skills to help grow their development. I am certain that my personal parenthood and previous experiences will afford me to offer great childcare services.
