Booked by 5 families in Miami Lakes, FL

Hi! My name is Miriam, and I’m a first year nursing student with 6 years of babysitting experience caring for children from newborns through elementary school age. I’m CPR certified and have a certification in Early Childhood Education, giving me the knowledge and experience to care for children at different stages of development. I’m currently pursuing my college education with the goal of becoming a pediatric nurse, so working with children is something I truly enjoy and am passionate about. I’m mainly looking for occasional babysitting jobs, especially in the evenings. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and dependable, and I’m comfortable helping with meals, homework, playtime, bedtime routines, and keeping children safe and entertained. I’d love the opportunity to provide your little ones with a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while giving parents peace of mind! 💕

“Miriam was super friendly, communicative, and did a great job with my two youngest babes. She handled a 17 month old and a 5 month old seamlessly and even got BOTH OF THEM to nap. She even cleared the dishes from the sink, which was totally not necessary, but incredibly appreciated! We plan to hire again for an upcoming date night!”

Hi, my name is Judine, and I am a compassionate, dependable caregiver with a strong healthcare background. I currently work as a Patient Care Associate in the ICU and Mother/Baby Unit at a well known hospital, where I provide attentive, hands on care to patients and families during some of life’s most important moments. In addition to my professional experience, I am also a proud mother to a kind, loving, and brilliant 6 years old, which has deepened my understanding of children’s needs, safety, and emotional development. I offer flexible, part time childcare and senior care services to families seeking trustworthy and nurturing support. I have experience caring for newborns through senior citizens in both hospital and private home settings. I take great pride in being a professional who genuinely cares about the well-being, comfort, and safety of those entrusted to me. I would love the opportunity to support your family and work together to create a safe, caring, and positive environment. Sincerely,
Judine
