Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Bob. I took an early retirement to take care of my mother and father after they fell ill. I didn’t want others taking care of them, especially when I was fully able. It was an honor to care for my parents until their passings, and gave me a feeling of deep satisfaction. I am able to cook, and do a great job keeping the house clean and tidy. I have an adult daughter, and two grandchildren, whom are the loves of my life. I enjoy spending time with them, yet they stay very busy with school and outside activities. That leaves me time to share my experience with other children and seniors. My compassion, kindness, patience, and understanding, helps me relate to multi-generations. I am usually available on short notice, and look forward to meeting you, and helping with you or your loved one’s daily needs. My favorite volunteer job was participating in meals on wheels. Many times I was the only contact my seniors incurred with the outside world. I enjoyed brightening their day, and gave them the extra love and attention they deserved. I have very reliable transportation, having just purchased a new car in June 2026. I also have a Yorkie named Maisie, and a cat named Socks. I love animals, and they love me. I often take care of other people’s pets when they are out of town, or unwell. Please consider meeting me in person, so we can get to know one another, and discuss your specific needs. I am living my best life with a positive attitude and a warm heart. I don’t use drugs or alcohol, and would be willing submit to random drug testing, and a background check, I look forward to talking with you soon.
I am a dedicated and compassionate person with a genuine passion for caring for others. I grew up in a close-knit household raised by one parent alongside my grandparents, which taught me from a young age the importance of patience, responsibility, empathy, and caring for loved ones. That upbringing inspired my passion for helping others and continues to shape the way I provide care today. I have experience delivering compassionate, personalized in-home care, ensuring clients feel comfortable, safe, and respected in their own homes. I assist with personal hygiene, cleaning, and daily household tasks while offering emotional support and companionship. I enjoy working with people and building trusting relationships with clients and their families. I am dependable, attentive, and kind, and I take pride in creating a calm, supportive environment where clients feel valued, understood, and well cared for.
Hi! My name is Pamella, I’m 29 and originally from Brazil, currently living in Poinciana, FL. I have over 10 years of experience caring for children from 4 months to 11 years old. I was an Au Pair in the U.S. from 2[removed] and have continued working as a nanny since then. I’m CPR certified, responsible, patient, and families describe me as trustworthy and very attentive with children. In addition to childcare, I also offer house cleaning and pet care. I’m very detail-oriented when it comes to cleaning and take pride in keeping homes organized and spotless. I’m also a pet lover and have two large dogs and three cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets. I’m a confident driver and comfortable helping with transportation if needed. I’m available full-time on weekends and on weekdays after 6pm. I’d love to connect with families looking for reliable help.
“Pamela did an amazing job cleaning my home. She went above and beyond and was super sweet. Will definitely hire again.”

Prior to becoming a nurse, I worked as a substitute teacher in Florida for K–8th grade, and I have also provided care as a part-time nanny for two toddlers. Additionally, I have experience caring for an older couple, giving me a well-rounded caregiving background across all age groups. I am can speak Spanish, have a clean driving record, and my own reliable transportation (though I’m happy to use a family vehicle if preferred). I live an active lifestyle and enjoy outdoor walks, exploring parks, exercising, and doing crafts with children. I am comfortable with light meal prep, housework, and pet care as needed. I am smoke-free, do not drink alcohol, and pride myself on being trustworthy, organized, punctual, and positive. My rate is starting at $25 per hour, depending on the number of children and workload. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide safe, nurturing care. Please feel free to reach out with any questions — I look forward to connecting with you!
Hi! My name is Mikayla, and I'm 21 years old with a strong love for working with kids. I’ve been volunteering with children at my church for nearly 10 years, and I also have professional experience through paid positions in childcare. I worked for the Safe-Key program and in summer camps at an elementary/middle school, where I cared for and supervised children in a structured setting. I'm comfortable with kids of all ages (as long as they’re out of diapers!) and am very flexible, reliable, and easy to adapt to each child’s personality. I’m also great at setting respectful boundaries with children—firm when needed, but always kind and understanding. A few fun facts about me: I love doing theatre and singing, I love all things Disney, and I'm a huge Spider-Man fan! I look forward to the opportunity to support your family!
