I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was about 13 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even just keeping children entertained for a few hours! I consider myself an extremely responsible and attentive person; I have always loved working with kids!!
“Diana was great! She was on time, thorough and very respectful & open to feedback. Will definitely be scheduling her again! ”
I’ve been caring for children since i was 15. I have a paraprofessional license, and I’ve worked as a nanny for two different families. My approach to caring for children is to incorporate play and nature that is at the child’s level. I love to take the child on walks and run errands with them. I will care for your child as if they were my own. I also am willing to tidy up around the house as necessary, and take children to their various activities - as long as a vehicle is provided.
Update: I’m currently available for occasional babysitting. Please message me for availability—I respond quickly! Hi! I’m Mou. I’m a former flight attendant and a pilot-in-training with over 8 years of babysitting experience. I’m CPR & First Aid certified and fluent in five languages. I love working with children and bring a calm, dependable energy to every home. One of my favorite things to do is tell stories through drawings—it sparks so much joy and creativity. You can count on me to be reliable, respectful, and communicative. Most importantly, I’ll care for your little ones like they’re family. Looking forward to connecting!
“Wonderful energy, great with our almost two year old. We would definitely book again!”

Hi my name is Lucy, I am currently a full time college student going in to my junior year at Eckerd. I am looking for part time nanny positions and occasional babysitting jobs. I have lots of experience babysitting starting from the age of 12, as well as experience from being the oldest of 4. I spent last summer nannying for a 4 month old so l have experience with infants. This past summer I nannied for 3 girls under 10. If you want to reach out to my past employers for references we can absolutely make that happen. I spent a lot of my high school years as a Girl Scout and as a Girl Scouts camp counselor so I have lots of fun enriching activities and games to play with kiddos. I regularly volunteer at my mom's preschool so l also am very good with much younger children. I have my own car and can provide transportation as you are comfortable with. I am cpr, aed and first aid certified, have a clean driving record, and can provide swimming supervision. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me.
