"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."

Angelina $22 per hour for 1 child
Hi there! I’m Angelina, a 20-year-old pre-nursing student at Valencia College. I’m also a part-time Nursing Assistant on a high-acuity floor at a major local hospital. I’m proud to be a President’s List recipient. I provide high-level safety, structured educational support, and warm, patient-centered care to babysitting. I’ve been babysitting since 2018, caring for up to three children, ranging from infants to 10 years old. I have diverse experience, including managing care for the youngest children in a large busy family and supporting neurodivergent children with deep patience. My healthcare background has rigorously trained me in RQI BLS/CPR (Adult & Infant), emergency response, and strict safety protocols. I also have quarterly hands-on competency evaluations. I can provide an engaging caregiver to help keep kids on track with learning, specialized infant care, or peace of mind for a date night. I have my own reliable transportation and look forward to partnering with your family!
Jennifer $20 per hour for 1 child

I have over 30 years in the medical field, from Nanny Nurse, Pediatric Nurse, Ob/GYN, Mental Health, and Pharmaceutical. I have now retired, but I love my passion in helping from infants to the elderly, I always love to make day in fulfilling the happiness off people around me, showing my love and adoration in my caring atmosphere and who are around me. Just seeing a huge smile in someone’s face, makes my day. Any family I interact with will see the passion I want to give to them. Love and caring has no boundaries.
