Booked by 5 families in Opa Locka, 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!”

Clarissa $30 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Clarissa, a warm, reliable, and experienced babysitter and nanny. I have more than 8 years of experience caring for children and supporting families, including many years in Salt Lake City, Utah. I love working with infants, toddlers, and school-age children, and I enjoy creating a safe, calm, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I am CPR certified. I am trilingual: Portuguese is my native language, I am fluent in English, and I speak advanced Spanish. I have my own car and a valid driver's license, so I can help with pickups, drop-offs, and outings when needed. I am available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings from 5-11pm and overnights from 11pm-5am, and I would love to be your go-to sitter for date nights and weekend evenings. I look forward to meeting your family!

Isabel $26 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 2 families in Opa Locka, FL

I've always had a deep passion for working with children, a passion that's been with me since my early years. My journey began as a teacher's assistant and tutor, and I later became a dedicated daycare worker for a year and for nearly seven years now, I've had the privilege of being a Nanny. What I find most fulfilling is being a part of a child's early developmental stages, shaping them for future success in school and life. I'm committed to fostering their growth, with a particular focus on activities that promote motor skills, sensory perception, and brain development. Understanding the unique needs of each age group is at the core of my caregiving approach. I want parents to feel confident and secure in my care, knowing that their children are safe & also happy & engaged. I aim to be more than just a nanny; I strive to be an integral part of the family. Thank you for taking the time to read, and I hope you'll consider me to be a part of your child's journey!

Ana $50 per hour for 1 child

I am a dedicated mother of three boys with years of hands-on experience caring for children of different ages, personalities, and needs. Being a mom has strengthened my patience, compassion, multitasking abilities, and instinct to create a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where children can thrive. I understand the importance of balancing emotional support, routines, academics, and daily care with warmth and consistency. My educational background is in child development and education. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Education from Florida International University, a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Nova Southeastern University, and an Educational Specialist degree in Reading K–12 from Nova Southeastern University. This strong academic foundation gives me a deep understanding of how children learn, grow, and develop both academically and emotionally. My combination of real-life parenting experience and advanced education allows me to provide thoughtful, attentive, and high-quality care.
