Tips to find a great full-time nanny without overpaying
- Be flexible on experience. Some of the best full-time nannies on the platform have 3–5 years on the job and charge meaningfully less than experienced full-time nannies with 10+ years. References matter more than years.
- Consider a share. If your kids are similar ages and you live near another family, a share is the single biggest cost reduction available without compromising on care.
- Be specific about hours upfront. Most full-time nannies will take a slightly lower rate for a guaranteed steady schedule than for a higher-rate, unpredictable one.
- Bundle benefits thoughtfully. Two weeks PTO, a health stipend, transit passes, education assistance, or an annual raise commitment can help close the gap with families offering a higher hourly rate.
- Match rate to responsibilities. A higher rate often makes sense once you add cooking, errands, or driving. Don't compare apples to oranges across listings.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Fátima Cristina Vieira Rodríguez, and I would like to apply for a job as a nanny or babysitter.
I am a responsible, caring, and patient person with experience caring for children of different ages. I enjoy creating a safe, happy, and activity-filled environment that stimulates their learning and development.
I can help with homework, prepare simple meals, keep the children's area tidy, and follow daily routines (bedtime, bathtime, walks, etc.).
I am available Monday through Friday and can work in homes in Lakeland, Davenport, or the surrounding area.
My priority is always the well-being and safety of the children.
If you would like to meet me or schedule an interview, I would be happy to meet you in person. Thank you.

I gave a loving learning environment for each child to reach their milestones at their own pace. I prepared a preschool lesson daily for a mixed range of ages. I love to sing, read, and play each day with lots of outdoor time!
I had 6 children of various ages everyday to care for. I took care of their daily needs such as preparing nutritious meals and snacks, bottles, naps, free play and activities. As well as letting parents know how their day went both verbally and written.
I’m hoping to be able to help out families again and take part in watching their children grow.
