A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Brooklynn, I'm nineteen years old and just moved to Gainesville from the panhandle for college! I'm a first-year student at UF, but I dual enrolled in high school so I have over 60 college credits. I worked in a daycare in my hometown with children from ages 3 months to 8 years old. I love children my degree is in psychology with a specialization in behavior analysis, I am working towards becoming a board-certified behavior analyst and working with autistic and special needs children. I have over 40 hours of DCF training and over a year of daycare experience and working in classes with 7-17 children to a 1 teacher ratio. I'm very experienced in working with children of all backgrounds, ages, and personalities. I'm very involved in school and with my sorority (Alpha Delta Pi), but I still have a good amount of weekday and weekend availability. I'm very open-minded, respectful, and responsible. I'm looking forward to working with flexible, understanding and kind families!

A little bit about me

I am currently studying at the University of Florida, originally from Tampa. While living there, I regularly babysat for families with children 2mo-6years (toddlers and elementary age children) all through high school. For 3 years, I also taught swim lessons to kids ages 3 through 7, and provided after school care in addition to lessons. I absolutely adore children and care-taking is truly my passion. I have a much older step brother who just welcomed his fourth child last June, so my entire life I have learned to care for young ones. While at UF, I have also volunteered in the infant classrooms of Baby Gator, a day care and developmental research center, which is affiliated with Shands Childrens Hospital. I am comfortable with newborns, but also have the energy and creative drive to keep older children engaged in play!

"To be clear, Jasmine was not my employee. I did have the pleasure of working with Jasmine as a cast-mate in a production of the Broadway musical "James and the Giant Peach" at the Gainesville Community Playhouse, from September - December 2025. Jasmine was consistently diligent about attending rehearsals, as well as learning her dialogue, music, and choreography. The cast included several young children, and Jasmine served as a good role model for all of them, demonstrating expected behaviors, and interacting with them effectively and appropriately throughout the production. My own children are all adults now, so this is hypothetical, but I would have been very comfortable employing Jasmine directly as their nanny when they were young."

"I am writing to recommend Rayna as a nanny for your family/organization. Rayna worked with our family for three months when we were in urgent need of a nanny to care for our 19-month-old son on short notice. During that time, Rayna showed herself to be a highly skilled and dedicated caregiver who consistently went above and beyond to provide excellent care for our child. In addition to her exceptional caregiving skills, Rayna was a pleasure to work with. She was reliable, responsible, and always communicated effectively with us about our son's care. She was also extremely flexible and willing to work with us to accommodate our changing schedules. Overall, I cannot recommend Rayna highly enough. She is an exceptional caregiver who would be an asset to any family. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further information. Sincerely, Madelynn Markle"
