Booked by 1 family in Leesburg, FL

Hello! Great to meet you! I am from Jamaica and have been here in Clermont, FL (and an American citizen) since 2004! I am an officer with the Lake County Sheriff's Dept, and I am CEO of a non-profit organization called Dorca's Way (You can find info on Facebook). We have monthly food drops for people in need. I enjoy caring for pets and helping others so much, I would love to help out families who need part time or occasional help. I have ten years experience pet sitting, dogs and cats, and I am especially wonderful with feisty senior dogs.

Did a great job, very kind and professional

Ava $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Ava. I am a college student and am offering child and pet care. A little to know about me is that I love staying active, spending time outdoors, and studying languages (currently learning Spanish and American Sign Language). Outside of school, I work as a swim instructor/lifeguard and work seasonally at a local farm. Child Care I have experience across all age ranges, from infants and toddlers to school-aged kids. Over the past 4 years, I’ve worked as a summer camp counselor managing large groups of children, and for the past year, I’ve taught swim lessons to infants and young kids. I also have years of experience caring for my younger siblings and cousins. I tend to focus on active, and engaging play for children. I love organizing outdoor games, arts and crafts, and cooking. I am also happy to help with water safety, tutoring, homework, transportation and meal prep. Certifications: Red Cross Lifeguard, CPR, AED, and First Aid Certified. Pet Care I was raised in a multi-pet household with pet-sitting experience. I’ve cared for standard household pets as well as exotic animals, including rodents, livestock, reptiles, birds, and amphibians. I offer daily feeding, enclosure/habitat maintenance, custom care routines, and much more.

Lesyanis $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Leesburg, FL

Hi! My name is Lesy and I’m a 23 year old aspiring Elementary School teacher or Nanny with seven years of childcare experience. Red Cross trained in Adult and Pediatric First Aid, CPR, and AED. I’m dependable and naturally organized. One of my greatest strengths is that I don’t become easily overwhelmed. A messy kitchen, change of plans, or a little chaos is something very manageable for me! I love finding thoughtful ways to keep children engaged and curious. In my free time I sell baked goods, craft, and sew, and I love incorporating those interests into creative activities. I love cooking and preparing food from scratch and I’d be happy to help out with meals, snacks, homework, and light household work. Because I have a shellfish allergy myself, I take dietary restrictions seriously! I make sure to read labels carefully, and prevent cross contamination at all times. I have completed an early childhood development course, bilingual in English and Spanish, currently learning sign language, and have a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation. My goal is to be someone parents can genuinely depend on and feel confident that their child is in responsible hands. I’m comfortable working in homes with dogs. I do have a cat allergy. One cat is generally manageable for me, but I’m unable to work in homes with multiple cats.
