Marci $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a certified nursing assistant as well as a yoga teacher. I’ve been in hospitality for over 10 years. I’m very patient, friendly and love to be around people. My grandmother and I would watch all my mom’s friend’s children while they were at work from Infants to toddlers and I also worked at a gym teaching them poses. I do enjoy being of service to others who need it when I have the time, it brings me purpose in life. I’m very reliable and a trustworthy person.

Booked by 5 families in Miami Beach, FL

Hi! My name is Miriam, and I’m a first year nursing student with 6 years of babysitting experience caring for children from newborns through elementary school age. I’m CPR certified and have a certification in Early Childhood Education, giving me the knowledge and experience to care for children at different stages of development. I’m currently pursuing my college education with the goal of becoming a pediatric nurse, so working with children is something I truly enjoy and am passionate about. I’m mainly looking for occasional babysitting jobs, especially in the evenings. I’m responsible, patient, caring, and dependable, and I’m comfortable helping with meals, homework, playtime, bedtime routines, and keeping children safe and entertained. I’d love the opportunity to provide your little ones with a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while giving parents peace of mind! 💕

“Miriam was super friendly, communicative, and did a great job with my two youngest babes. She handled a 17 month old and a 5 month old seamlessly and even got BOTH OF THEM to nap. She even cleared the dishes from the sink, which was totally not necessary, but incredibly appreciated! We plan to hire again for an upcoming date night!”

Clarismel $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Clary. I’m a caring, dependable, patient, and responsible caregiver with previous nanny experience and a genuine love for working with children. I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and comfortable environment where kids can be themselves, learn, and have fun. I’m attentive to each child’s individual needs and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can truly trust with their children. I’m comfortable helping with daily routines, meals and snacks, playtime, activities, light housekeeping related to the children, and keeping their space clean and organized. I’m also comfortable around pets and understand the importance of respecting each family’s routines, household rules, and parenting preferences. I’m reliable, organized, nurturing, and easy to communicate with. My goal is to make things a little easier for parents while making sure their children feel safe, cared for, and happy while they’re with me. I’m currently looking to connect with families who need a trustworthy and dependable nanny or babysitter, whether that’s for consistent care or occasional help. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and see if I would be a good fit!
