I’m a college student available for summer babysitting. I’m flexible with hours and have experience caring for toddlers and older children. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and completed Advanced Childcare Training through the Red Cross. I enjoy engaging kids with Legos, music, and creative activities. Reliable, responsible, and safety-focused—I’d love to support your family this summer!
Hello everyone! my name is Genesis and I'm 32 years old. I have lived in the United Estates for three years and I have worked for five years as a babysitter. I also have 4 wonderful nephews and I took care of them since they were babies. I am a kind and sweet person. I love music, yoga and being in nature. I am currently doing my CPR and first aid certification and also I have medical background because I have a bachelor’s degree in Histotechnology ( I graduated in my home country) so I have an strong sense of responsibility and safety. Working with children is a very rewarding job for me because I have an opportunity to be creative and joyful. I like to have a good communication with the parents and I always follow the rules of the house. I'm currently improving my English, but I'm putting all my effort :) feel free to contact me with any question. thank you!!!
I have formal hands-on experience working with young children as a Student teacher at the Little Lions Preschool early childhood elective program, where I assisted teachers with daily routines, supervised activities, and kept the space organized and safe. I’ve also spent multiple summers volunteering for Vacation Bible School leading group activities. My personal babysitting experience comes from my young cousins, ranging from infants to middle schoolers.
My name is Gabriella, and I am a graduate of the University of Central Florida with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a minor in legal studies. I am currently applying to start a Master’s Degree program in Clinical Social Work. Working with children has always been a passion of mine, and I feel privileged to support parents and guardians by helping make their days a little easier while ensuring their children are happy and safe. I enjoy collaborating with families to create daily routines and activities that spark creativity, laughter, and joyful learning. Whether providing long-term care or occasional visits, I strive to provide the highest level of care for every child. My experience includes in-home care for children ages 16 months to 12 years, working in a residential behavioral health facility with teens, afterschool programs, and summer camps with groups of 15–30 children. I’ve also volunteered with the Orange County Bar Association, supporting children in foster care with sourcing school supplies, mental health resources, and extracurricular opportunities. The best part of my work is seeing children laugh, learn, and grow. I look forward to bringing that joy to your family and building meaningful connections with your children.
Hello! I currently work at a childcare center and have goals of becoming a teacher! I love disney, marvel, animals, kids and the color pink. I grew up sitting for my siblings and I am fluent in both english and spanish. I currently have 2 cats whom I love to spoil. I am available after 6pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. Can’t wait to meet you and your kiddos!
