Dayana $17 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring and responsible childcare provider with professional experience as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), specializing in working with children with autism and special needs. While I have not worked formally as a nanny, I am also a mother, which has given me hands-on experience in daily childcare, safety, and child development. I currently work Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM, so I am available for afternoon, evening, and weekend childcare. I focus on supporting positive behavior, routine building, and developmental skills using structured and supportive strategies when needed. I am patient, reliable, and deeply committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment for children.

Christina $17 per hour for 1 child

Hi everyone! My name is Christina. I have around 6 years of babysitting experience caring for children between the ages of 2 and 10, along with growing up helping care for my younger brother. I have always loved being around children, and I treat every child I care for with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would give my own younger sibling. I strive to create a safe, fun, and comfortable environment where children feel supported and cared for. I am responsible, dependable, patient, nurturing, and attentive to each child's individual needs. My experience includes everything from watching children for a few hours to providing overnight care and transportation when needed. I am comfortable adapting to different family routines and helping with daily responsibilities to make parents' lives easier. I am currently a full-time online student at the University of South Florida, which gives me a flexible schedule and greater availability for families. I genuinely enjoy building relationships with the children I care for and becoming someone parents can trust. My goal is to make sure every family feels comfortable leaving their children in my care and that every child feels safe, happy, and loved while I am with them.

Hi! I’m Sebrina a dependable and caring caregiver based in Polk County, serving local families and those visiting the Orlando theme park area. I have experience caring for children, seniors, and pets, and I’m known for being reliable, patient, and attentive. I’m also a licensed insurance agent and a former CNA, so I take safety, responsibility, and protecting families very seriously. I understand how important trust is when it comes to your children and your home. I offer school pickup, aftercare, date nights, and theme park nanny support for visiting families. I bring a calm, structured approach while making sure kids feel comfortable and cared for.

Alisha $22 per hour for 1 child

As a mother of a 21-year-old son now in college, I bring over two decades of hands-on experience in parenting, caregiving, and supporting children’s growth and development. Throughout my son’s childhood, I was actively involved in his school community as a “team mom,” field trip chaperone, classroom volunteer, and consistent presence at school and extracurricular events. Before and after my son’s birth, I worked with school-age children and daycare programs on military bases in Florida and New Mexico. I also have extensive experience providing babysitting support for families and friends, stepping in for both regular care and occasional coverage when needed. As a parent, I understand the importance of structure, consistency, and attention to individual household routines. I’m mindful of dietary needs, preferences, and any family-specific guidelines, and I always aim to create a balance between fun and structure while respecting each family’s expectations. I recognize that every household operates differently and adjust my approach accordingly. Parenthood has also taught me flexibility and calm problem-solving. I’m comfortable handling unexpected situations with patience and responsibility, addressing minor issues independently while keeping parents informed when something requires their attention. I hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology with a focus on child and adolescent development, which strengthens my understanding of behavior, communication, and age-appropriate engagement. I genuinely enjoy working with children, encouraging curiosity, creativity, and positive interactions in a safe and supportive environment where they feel comfortable and cared for.
