Hi! I’m Sara — an experienced, warm, and highly reliable nanny based in Miami. I have over 6 years of hands-on childcare experience caring for different ages. I’m CPR certified, safety-focused, and naturally calm and patient. I believe in positive guidance, clear boundaries, and creating a nurturing environment where children feel secure and understood. Whether it’s playtime, outdoor activities, public outings, or bedtime routines, I stay attentive, proactive, and fully engaged. Families describe me as responsible, organized, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important trust is, and my goal is always for parents to feel completely at ease while they’re away. I’m comfortable with: • Dinner & bedtime routines • Public outings & birthday parties • Diaper changes & potty training stages • Light clean-up related to the children • Managing multiple children calmly I look forward to connecting with you!
Hey there, my name is Karen! I moved here from NYC, originally from Chicago. I’m a preschool teacher with 5+ years of experience working in daycare and school settings, with occasional babysitting my students on the side. I’ve worked with kids in many capacities and ages ranging from infancy to school-aged. I enjoy teaching children through hands-on activities by setting up the environment for them to explore and learn for themselves through play and thoughtful guidance. I like keeping kids active by engaging in arts and crafts, spending outdoor time, building blocks, playing sports/tag, and exploring the neighborhood. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and have a valid driver’s license. I also obtained my Early Childhood Education Credential Level 5 through my work/field experience and college courses. With a background in early childhood education, I understand what is developmentally appropriate for children’s learning and development. In my free time I enjoy experimenting with new recipes, trying out different restaurants, nature walks/hikes, jamming to live music, and exploring museums/galleries. Will provide references upon request. Feel free to reach out to me and connect! :) ___________________________________ PLEASE NOTE MY REQUIREMENTS PRIOR TO BOOKING: Booking minimum: 4 hours Cancellation policy: If you need to cancel, please do so at least 48 hours prior to your booking.

“Karen is so amazing! She is exceptionally great at pretend play and arts & crafts, which my little girl loves. She brings her own crafts/materials too. She's always on time, never on her phone, and is really good with gentle parenting/correcting/ redirecting when it comes to bad behavior and big emotions.”
I have cared for kids throughout my life. They bring me a lot of joy. I come from a large family and have always babysat my siblings, nieces and nephews kids.
Hi- My name is Veronica and I'm currently a college student. I'm offering pet care but due to my school schedule my availability may vary from week to week.
Hello! My name is Grace, and I’m 25 years old. Originally from Nicaragua, I moved to the U.S. to pursue my education at Northeastern University, where I completed my degree in Behavioral Neuroscience and later earned a master’s degree in Bioinformatics. I lived in Boston for five years and have recently been based in Naples, Florida due to my remote job in Boston. I will be relocating to Miami, Florida [Brickell area] at the end of January and am excited to connect with families in the area. I’m currently preparing to apply to medical school, which has been a long-standing goal of mine. I’m fluent in both Spanish and English and have a deep love for working with children. My childcare experience began in high school, caring for my cousins and family friends, and more recently, I worked consistently with one family during my two years in Naples, caring for two sisters under the age of 10. Whether it’s a quiet day at home cooking and watching movies or a fun-filled day of outdoor activities, I strive to create a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for children. In my free time, I’m very active and enjoy various sports, including running, tennis, pickleball, padel, golf, skiing, and rollerblading. I’d love to share my enthusiasm for movement and the outdoors with your kids or simply ensure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy at home. I look forward to meeting your family!
