"We had the pleasure of having Lilly as our nanny for 18 months, starting when our baby was just 6 months old. She was absolutely wonderful and became an integral part of our family during that time. From day one, Lilly was warm, caring, and highly professional. She was fantastic at preparing healthy, delicious meals for our little one and always ensured that they were well-fed and happy. She also planned a variety games and activities that helped foster our child’s development in a fun and engaging way. Lilly kept our home tidy and organized, which was a huge relief. She took the initiative to help with overnight trips, ensuring we could have some much-needed time away while knowing our baby was in safe hands. We are so grateful for her commitment and the peace of mind she provided us. Our child absolutely loved spending time with her, and it was clear how much she cared for our little one. We highly recommend Lilly to anyone looking for a responsible, loving, and reliable nanny."

A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm a rising Junior at the University of Tampa, currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. I'm looking for a summer nannying position! Last semester, I earned an A in my Child Psychology & Development class, and I’m eager to apply the knowledge I’ve gained to provide the best care for your children. I’m passionate about creating a nurturing and fun environment where kids feel both safe and challenged to grow.

With 6 years of experience as a babysitter and nanny, I've had the pleasure of caring for children ranging from 11 months to 14 years old, including looking after as many as five kids at once! I love animals, so I’m also happy to offer pet care and help with household chores while nannying.

As I head back to the University of Tampa in late August, I’m looking for a wonderful family to build a lasting connection with. I’m committed to providing attentive, caring support, and I can’t wait to meet more amazing kids along the way!

"Gaby has been such a gift to us — loving, reliable, high energy, and always leading with kindness. She was solely focused on our son, making sure he’s learning, engaged, and truly thriving every day. She’s constantly coming up with fun, creative activities for him. On top of that, she’s been a total lifesaver by helping out with small household tasks — it’s made such a difference in our day-to-day routine. Her support has been felt in every corner of our home, and we’re so grateful for her presence. She’s bilingual, and casually speaking Spanish with our son has helped him prepare for his Spanish immersion daycare! She has reliable transportation. She has safely taken to my son to many places like the park and his toddler gym classes. We truly can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone nurturing, experienced, and genuinely special, please don’t hesitate to reach out."
