Hi! My name is Camila, I’m 20 years old and I live in Doral. I’m currently studying Business Administration at FIU. I’m a caring, responsible, and patient person, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages and enjoy doing activities with them such as playing, arts and crafts, reading, helping with homework, and keeping them entertained. I’m also happy to help with light meal preparation and keeping their space tidy. I also love animals and have experience caring for pets, including feeding, walking, and playing with them. I’m comfortable around both small and large dogs also cats. My goal is to make sure your children feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet your family and learn more about what you’re looking for! 😊

Hi! My name is Victoria, and I graduated from UCF with a Bachelor’s in Psychology. I am currently in a Professional Counseling Psychology Masters program. I have experience working with children of all ages. I worked as a summer camp counselor for two summers with 7–8 year olds, planning activities and managing groups in a fun and safe environment. I currently work as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), providing one-on-one support for children with autism. I have experience with ages 2–14. In this role, I focus on behavior management, communication, and emotional support. I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy working with kids. I’m looking to connect with families who need a reliable sitter for occasional date nights, evenings out, or whenever an extra helping hand is needed. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you feel comfortable and confident leaving your little one with. I’m comfortable with pets as well, having grown up with 4 cats and lived with a dog.
I’m a responsible, energetic caregiver with a background in the Law Field and home health care. I’ve cared for children and pets, and I’m passionate about making sure those in my care feel safe, supported, and happy. I’m reliable, communicative, and great at handling routines or surprises with calm confidence. Whether it’s playtime, homework help, or bedtime, I’m all in!
I’m a warm, responsible, and experienced childcare professional who genuinely enjoys working with children. I’m a Montessori-certified educator and kindergarten teacher, so I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages and creating a fun, safe, and structured environment. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I love doing crafts, playing, reading, helping with homework, and finding fun ways to keep kids engaged. My goal is for families to feel comfortable knowing their children are in caring and capable hands.
