Donica 1 review
Boynton Beach
$18 per hour for 1 child

I’m a nurturing and dependable caregiver with experience caring for children and seniors. As the oldest of four, I naturally stepped into a caregiving role from a young age, supporting my own family and babysitting for family friends and neighbors. I’m patient, attentive, and optimistic, and I take pride in creating a safe, calm, and supportive environment for those in my care. I’m currently available for occasional and last-minute care on Sundays–Wednesdays, depending on the week. I’m especially happy to help with short notice or one-time bookings! While I don’t transport children in my own vehicle, I’m comfortable staying on-site or using a family vehicle if needed.

Donica is a great babysitter. My kid loved her and is constantly asking when she’ll be back. She’s patient, flexible, reliable and responsible. Her communication throughout is top tier. Donica truly has a way with children. If you’re looking for someone who is skilled and able to adjust to your schedule, she is the perfect candidate.

I’m a 19 year old college student with over three years of experience with children. I have multiple CPR/First Aid/Choking certifications and real world experiences. I’ve been lifeguarding since I was 16, and have always had a passion for working with kids. I currently go to FAU, but have a decently flexible schedule and am able to work 30+ hours a week, including overnights, and weekends.
