Hello! I am currently studying for medical school and am working as a scribe full-time, but am looking for some extra work hours. I recently graduated from USF with a Master’s degree in public health. I have my BS in psychology/pre-med from Northwestern University. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old when I received my safe sitter license. I am certified in CPR as a certified nursing assistant and lifeguard. I have watched children of all ages and abilities, and really value all that I have learned from them. Outside of watching children, I have skills in communication, cooking, tutoring, and cleaning.

Booked by 3 families in Tampa, FL

I go to college at University of South Florida and I am in school to become an elementary teacher! When I was in middle school up to my sophomore year of high school I would volunteer at my old daycare and was a teacher assistant. I am very passionate about becoming a teacher and working with children is my favorite thing to do. I loved playing with and creating lesson plans for the younger children and it inspired me to become a teacher.

Armani was a great sitter. She was communicative, caring and our little one said he had a great time with her.

Dayana $17 per hour for 1 child

I am a caring and responsible childcare provider with professional experience as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), specializing in working with children with autism and special needs. While I have not worked formally as a nanny, I am also a mother, which has given me hands-on experience in daily childcare, safety, and child development. I currently work Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM, so I am available for afternoon, evening, and weekend childcare. I focus on supporting positive behavior, routine building, and developmental skills using structured and supportive strategies when needed. I am patient, reliable, and deeply committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment for children.
