Hi! My name is Monica and I’m a Tampa-based babysitter and university student offering reliable child care for families in the area. I’ve been caring for kids for years and genuinely enjoy it. I also grew up helping take care of my two younger brothers, so being patient, responsible, and attentive comes naturally to me. Throughout high school, I babysat consistently for multiple families in Miami and gained experience with kids of different ages. I’m happy to help with homework, play the games your kids enjoy, and make sure bedtime routines go smoothly. I’m friendly, dependable, and safety is always my top priority. My goal is always to make sure your kids feel comfortable, happy, and well taken care of while you’re away.

I’m comfortable helping with routines, meals, and keeping things organized. I also enjoy making easy, healthy meals. I always make sure children feel safe, supported, and happy.
