Lesyanis $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Winter Park, 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.

Booked by 38 families in Winter Park, FL

I'm a mother of two children myself but they are all grown up one of them is 35and the other one is 27 I love to be around small children and having fun with them by making them smile I’m also a grandma to a 8 old granddaughter and a 6year old granddaughter who I adore very much.

“Denise was very communicative, and even shared her location with us when she was en route to meet us at our hotel. She listened to our instructions and followed them exactly. Usually our daughter freaks out when we leave her with a new sitter, but the second time Denise watch her, she didn’t cry or fuss at all at drop-off, which is always a great sign. ”

"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!"
