I am a dedicated caregiver with a Bachelors Degree in Exceptional Student Education with endorsements in Autism, English Language Learners and Reading. I have experience caring for children from infancy to age 12 as well as providing loving care for seniors and pets. As a former caregiver for my grandmother, I understand importance of patience, companionship and assisting with daily needs. I am also a pet owner and I am comfortable tending to dogs and other animals with care and responsibility. Being a mother to a two year old, I am very skilled at multi-tasking, nurturing, and creating a safe, engaging environment. I was previously a kindergarten teacher to Students with Autism in a cluster class before I stayed home as a mother. Since I am a stay at home mom, I work around when my mom is able to watch my daughter. I can always bring her along with me if you'd prefer the added bonus of a sweet and energetic 2 year old to make my availability more flexible. Whether caring for children, seniors, or pets, I bring attentiveness and reliability to every role.
Iām a current 3rd year medical student interested in pursuing pediatrics and pediatric psychiatry. I am officially trained in CPR [Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) Basic Life Support (BLS)] for both adults and children. As part of my medical training, I have helped care for children of all ages in both outpatient and inpatient settings including those with learning differences or neurodiversity. As a middle child, I have experience with older and younger children which informed my approach to babysitting (and conflict management š). I am comfortable taking care of and working with both young and older children. On a personal note, I am a Florida native with immigrant parents from South America, thus I have a native proficiency in Spanish and I love soccer. Also, I have a background in art. I am open to preparing meals for children as long as any allergies, dietary restrictions, or preferences are disclosed in detail. I am comfortable with pets in the home if they are well-behaved/trained and have no history of causing any illness, injuries, or bites to others. For transparency: pet-sitting is not one of the services I offer. In addition, I have experience as a summer school teacher and tutor for middle school and high-school students. I offer tutoring for middle school, high school and college levels in the following areas: basic sciences, biology, general chemistry, biochemistry, anatomy/physio, psychology, neuroscience, history, writing, reading, college and medical school application essays, SAT/ACT/AP exam in the aforementioned subject areas, MCAT exam (behavioral science and CARS sections). I have experience tutoring since I was in middle school, high school, college and have continued to do so in medical school. For your convenience, I am more than happy to overlap tutoring with baby sitting depending on the number of children and their ages. For example, if there are two kids to be watched and the older one is being tutored, I would feel more comfortable if someone else was home supervising the other child if that child is very young at least for the duration of the tutoring session.
I have been working as a Nanny with ranging in age from 4 months and up to the age of 14 years old. My duties are to take care of the children, engage with them, and to provide a safe environment on a day to day basis, including, their laundry, make their beds, organize their closets, clean their shoes and organizing their toys. Sometimes they need help with homework so I assist with projects and study sessions. I assist in activities such as board games, basketball, swimming, cooking and baking. Iām also responsible for taking them to their afternoon activities such as tennis, ballet, ju jitsu, etc. I also traveled with the families.
Hi! I'm an FIU student, studying data analytics and business administration. I've got tons of experience with little ones ā think toddlers and school-aged kids. I spent a whole summer, and parts of the school year, being a go-to for a fantastic 7-year-old boy. We had a blast! I was there for them for about 3 years, weekends, evenings, homework help, you name it. I'm super easygoing, patient, and gentle. Iām a big reader, so I'm always up for story time. And even if homework isn't their favorite thing, I'm great at finding ways to make it fun and engaging. I'm happy to pitch in with light household stuff too ā a little cleaning, unloading the dishwasher, switching laundry, making snacks or dinner, whatever helps make your life a bit easier. I'm a great cook and a reformed picky eater so if you have one of those I'm the girl for the job! Also, I have a tree nut allergy myself, so I totally get the importance of allergy awareness and know how to use an EpiPen. Safety first! I'm excited to meet you and your family!

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
