Lauren $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I go by Kennedy! I am AHA BLS certified and I’m always prepared for anything, whether it be entertainment, an ouch, or a snack break, I’ll have my sitter kit ready (mess-free art, fun stickers, basic medical, and a snack bag with hand wipes) I love the randomness and wonder with kids, if they decide they want to be a dinosaur today then more power to em’! I’ll gladly translate their homework to pterodactyl. I am a reliable, punctual commuter dedicated to providing high quality in-home care for families in Orlando.

Andie $16 per hour for 1 child

Hi there I am Andie! I am a junior at the University of Central Florida and have babysat here and there throughout the years. I am outgoing and can take care of children while adhering to their needs. I have taken care of children ages 2 and up and am able to cook, drive, and possibly help them with their homework. I also can dance and tumble and enjoy all things active. I love pets and can help with feeding, cleaning up after, and walking dogs/cats.

Lesyanis $20 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Altamonte Springs, 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.

Taryn $18 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Taryn! I’m 19 years old, a recent GED graduate, interested in pursuing Nannying full time. My main interest include reading, baking, and sewing! I have mostly worked with ages 6 months and up but love to gain experience in other age ranges. Nannying has made it possible to use my natural gifts of patience and self giving love everyday and do something I throughly enjoy! I am very flexible, and love to cater to each family’s particular needs. My main services include, childcare and pet care. However, if there is something else that i'm missing I would love to chat to see if I can be of any help!
