I am a loving and energetic nanny with 15+ years of nanny, certified newborn care specialist, daycare, and babysitting experience. I have worked as both a live-out and live-in nanny. **I am currently seeking only temporary/short term work (ie date nights, nanny coverage, etc.)** Taking care of children is my passion and though I’m good with all ages, I particularly love working with newborns, up to early school aged children. I’m well versed in milestones for social, fine and gross motor, cognitive, physical, and emotional skill development and work with my children to reach them. I have also potty trained the children in my primary previous family. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, a nonsmoker, and have a valid driver’s license. I place a strong emphasis on education, but believe in a holistic approach and include dancing, yoga, meditation, singing/music, arts and crafts, science, and acting in my child care. I love to do extra things for my families, including walking dogs (I love animals!), setting appointments for the child(ren) and dogs, date nights, etc. I have excellent communication skills and have great rapports with my previous families, in part, due to our open and honest dialogues. I am flexible and highly adaptable to accommodate my families when changes arise. References available.

Ashely was spectacular. I don't think I can fully articulate how incredible she was because I might miss things. She set the standard for what I expect from a nanny. Ashley worked with us for three weeks. She was always punctual, stayed late if she could, and was highly communicative and conscientious. Our daughter adored her and thrived under her care. I would have hired her as our full-time nanny without hesitation if Ashley wasn't moving away from DC. She took a tremendous amount of initiative, not just being a caregiver for our child but also helping around the house - one day, she randomly cleaned our stove when our daughter was sleeping. Our daughter talked about her for weeks after she left. I would recommend Ashley to anyone without hesitation.

Hi! My name is Ashley, I’m going into my junior year of college next semester, and I’m 20 years old. I’m looking to babysit/nanny/dog sit this summer! I dog sat and occasionally baby sat for a family my first year of college but I have never formally had a job as a babysitter- however I’ve had jobs and done volunteering that have dealt with kids. I worked in a uniform clothing store last year. The clothing store had uniforms for many private schools and I would help children pick out their uniforms. I volunteered for 6 years every summer for vacation bible school and was in charge of a group of kids each week. I can drive kids (I have a car), am very good at arts and crafts, can tutor, and I’m athletic so I like outdoor activities. I am very patient, caring, kind, respectful, and easy to work with. I have a lot of free time this summer and would love to help babysit/nanny children!

I am a caring and responsible childcare provider with professional experience as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), specializing in working with children with autism and special needs. While I have not worked formally as a nanny, I am also a mother, which has given me hands-on experience in daily childcare, safety, and child development. I currently work Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM, so I am available for afternoon, evening, and weekend childcare. I focus on supporting positive behavior, routine building, and developmental skills using structured and supportive strategies when needed. I am patient, reliable, and deeply committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment for children.

Hi I’m Jessie. I have 24 years of experience in education and child care. I have 2 boys, 13 and 15. 2 dogs, a Great Dane and a Saint Bernard. Currently I teach in Pinellas County Schools private school division and work with ESE students in K-12 grade. I started babysitting when I was 14 and quickly became a nanny for 2 families. My first nanny job began with a 6 month old and a 1.5 year old. I stayed with that family until they were 5 and 6.5. When those children began school full time I did pick ups and drop offs, but during the day I worked in a church daycare with infants to two year olds. I have extensive experience with infants, toddlers, and school age children. I am available for school pickups and drop offs, night time sittings, overnights, pet and house sitting as well. I love playing games, going on educational outings, movies, farmers markets, theme parks, or just crafting at home. I look forward to hopefully meeting some of you in the future.

Hello :) I consider fostering a child's growth and development the most important task in the world. I am dedicated to making a positive, lasting impact on the lives of the families I support. With 13 years of experience, I offer patient, calm, and creative care for children ranging from infants to pre-teens. I hold a graduate degree in medical science, which has provided me with a strong foundation for supporting early childhood development. I am fully CPR trained and First Aid trained. I enjoy engaging children through sports and educational games that promote learning. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and always follow your preferred communication method to keep you updated on your child's day. Since I have my own car, I am reliable and ready to assist with your family's needs. I look forward to the possibility of becoming a trusted partner in your child's journey.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
