Booked by 3 families in Miami, FL

Hi everyone! I have been working with kids of all ages for about 10 years now but my main focus is early childhood. I have a bachelors in Early Childhood Education and have been a teacher in a classroom for about 4 years. I love working with children it's truly is one of my passions and I would love to take that passion outside of the classroom, have a bit more freedom and flexibility with the children I work with. Living in Florida im a big outdoors girl I love being able to take walks and enjoy the fresh air/water. I have a cat and a dog so I am familiar with those care services as well.

“Pamela was great! She was able to tame the little one from the first minute!”

Michaela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Michaela. I have over 10 years of childcare experience, including babysitting, professional nannying, AuPair support, and leadership roles in early childhood education. I worked as a Lead Teacher and Assistant Director at a bilingual international daycare, creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for children to learn and grow. I am warm, responsible, organized, and experienced working with children and families. I truly enjoy building strong connections with families and creating a supportive, positive environment where children feel safe, happy, and cared for. I am also currently continuing my education to become a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula, which reflects my passion for supporting both children and families at every stage.

Jeamy $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi, I'm Jeamy! I'm a dedicated mom and dog lover with a deep passion for caring for others. Originally from the Dominican Republic, I have experience looking after my own daughter and pets, and I truly enjoy providing attentive, loving care. Currently, I work as a front desk supervisor, but I'm looking to do something extra—something I love and comes naturally to me: taking care of children and pets. When you trust me with your loved ones, they become part of my family too! What I Offer: Child Care: I have experience with kids of all ages and love engaging them in fun and educational activities like reading, arts and crafts, singing, dancing, and helping with homework. Pet Care: As a devoted dog mom of two, I understand the importance of proper care, whether it’s walking, feeding, administering medication, or just giving them plenty of love and playtime. Senior Companionship: While I don’t have formal experience in senior care, I’m eager to learn and provide companionship and support. If you're looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy caregiver for your child, pet, or loved one, I’d be happy to help!

Yasmine $35 per hour for 1 child

I’m a current 3rd year medical student interested in pursuing pediatrics and pediatric psychiatry. I am officially trained in CPR [Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) Basic Life Support (BLS)] for both adults and children. As part of my medical training, I have helped care for children of all ages in both outpatient and inpatient settings including those with learning differences or neurodiversity. As a middle child, I have experience with older and younger children which informed my approach to babysitting (and conflict management 😊). I am comfortable taking care of and working with both young and older children. On a personal note, I am a Florida native with immigrant parents from South America, thus I have a native proficiency in Spanish and I love soccer. Also, I have a background in art. I am open to preparing meals for children as long as any allergies, dietary restrictions, or preferences are disclosed in detail. I am comfortable with pets in the home if they are well-behaved/trained and have no history of causing any illness, injuries, or bites to others. For transparency: pet-sitting is not one of the services I offer. In addition, I have experience as a summer school teacher and tutor for middle school and high-school students. I offer tutoring for middle school, high school and college levels in the following areas: basic sciences, biology, general chemistry, biochemistry, anatomy/physio, psychology, neuroscience, history, writing, reading, college and medical school application essays, SAT/ACT/AP exam in the aforementioned subject areas, MCAT exam (behavioral science and CARS sections). I have experience tutoring since I was in middle school, high school, college and have continued to do so in medical school. For your convenience, I am more than happy to overlap tutoring with baby sitting depending on the number of children and their ages. For example, if there are two kids to be watched and the older one is being tutored, I would feel more comfortable if someone else was home supervising the other child if that child is very young at least for the duration of the tutoring session.

"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!"
