"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

Hello! Great to meet you! I am from Jamaica and have been here in Clermont, FL (and an American citizen) since 2004! I am an officer with the Lake County Sheriff's Dept, and I am CEO of a non-profit organization called Dorca's Way (You can find info on Facebook). We have monthly food drops for people in need. I enjoy caring for pets and helping others so much, I would love to help out families who need part time or occasional help. I have ten years experience pet sitting, dogs and cats, and I am especially wonderful with feisty senior dogs.

Hii! My name is Mariangely but you can call me Mary, I'm 18 years old and currently enrolled in college. I have CPR/first aid certification. I have two years of experience with kids from newborn to 11 years old and feel comfortable caring for up to four children at a time. I'm fluent in English and Spanish, comfortable setting and following household rules, and I believe open communication with families is really important. Caring for children is something I truly love. I'm patient, calm, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy helping kids learn and grow through play, whether that's outdoor activities, board games, puzzles, or fun educational activities. I have a 10-year-old sister who means a lot to me and a dog that I love, which has taught me a lot about responsibility, patience, and caring for others. I'm always happy to share updates by text, phone, or in person. Being a reliable and supportive sitter truly makes me happy, and I'd love the chance to babysit for your family!!
“She was amazing!! On time! My son wind up getting sick unexpectedly and she handled like a pro til I got home! 10/10 recommend she’s so sweet and nice and professional I will definitely use her in the future!”

Bio: Hello! My name is Olivia, and I am passionate about caring for children and pets alike. With over 5 years of experience as an assistant preschool teacher, I have developed a deep understanding of child development and the importance of nurturing a safe and engaging environment for little ones. I’ve also been babysitting since I was 12, allowing me to build strong, trusting relationships with families. In addition to my childcare experience, I have been a dedicated pet sitter for the past 3 years. Having grown up with pets, I understand their needs and behaviors, ensuring they receive the love and care they deserve while their owners are away. Whether it’s caring for children or furry friends, I am committed to providing a reliable and compassionate service. I look forward to meeting your family and ensuring your loved ones are in great hands!
“Olivia has worked with children for many years starting in middle school. She participated in the big buddy school program, volunteered in church nurseries and Sunday schools, babysat many families over the years, was a camp counselor, and all her high school jobs were working with children. Kids love her enthusiasm and passion. She is well trained and a lot of fun.”
