Diana 1 review
$40 per hour for 1 child

About Me I have 5 years of experience working with children, including after-school programs where I supported students with activities, learning, and development. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and very patient when helping children or families learn new skills. I have built great relationships with the families I’ve worked with and always strive to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment for children. Outside of work, I love to dance, work out, ride my bike, bake, cook, and take walks with my dog.

“We had a wonderful experience with Diana! She took amazing care of our 5-year-old, handling the entire bedtime routine, putting our child to bed, and even feeding our dog. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and caring. Our child absolutely loves her and always looks forward to seeing her. Her bedtime routine is amazing: calm, organized, and comforting, which made evenings so much easier for us as parents. A huge plus for our family is that Diana speaks Spanish, which has been wonderful since our child is learning the language. We really appreciated the extra exposure and encouragement in such a natural way. We always felt confident leaving our child in her care and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and loving babysitter. We will book her again for sure. Thank so much Diana!”

Ana $20 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Ana, I am 23 years old, and I have been working as a nanny in the United States for the past three months. I have a degree in Pedagogy and over three years of experience working with children as both a teacher and a nanny in Brazil. I am passionate about early childhood education and believe that every child deserves to grow in a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment. I am a caring, patient, responsible, and eager-to-learn person. Living in another country has given me the opportunity to experience new cultures, improve my English, and further develop my childcare skills. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new places, reading, and spending time with friends and family. I believe in the importance of kindness, respect, and lifelong learning. My goal is to build trusting relationships with families while providing children with attentive care, support, and plenty of encouragement as they grow and learn.

Vianca $30 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Vianca, a warm, caring, and dependable babysitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I have experience caring for babies, toddlers, and young children, and I’m comfortable helping with their daily routines, including meals, diaper changes, naps, bath time, bedtime, and keeping them engaged and entertained. I’m patient, attentive, and I always want children to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I enjoy reading, playing, doing age-appropriate activities, spending time outdoors, and taking trips to the park or library when appropriate. I understand that every child and family has their own routine and preferences, so I’m happy to follow your instructions and adapt to what works best for your family. My goal is for parents to feel comfortable and confident knowing their children are in good hands. I’m currently looking for occasional and part-time babysitting opportunities and would love the chance to meet your family.
