A little bit about me
I am, and continue to work hard to be, a dedicated, nurturing, and experienced childcare provider. Within my six years of working with children (through Sunday school/summer camp teaching, babysitting, and full time nannying) I am passionate about providing a safe and stimulating environment. I am attentive and knowledgeable on the differences between age groups and their needs. I am greatly suitable for caring for groups of children, as I have been put in leadership positions. Along with my previous jobs, my high school education (Graduated May of 2025) and determination to maintain a 3.5+ GPA all four years points to my toolbag of skills I have accumulated.
SKILLS
These skills include: strong organization and time management, deep understanding of my responsibilities, problem solving with a calm and positive demeanor, encouraging emotional and social growth, prioritizing communication and flexibility with parents, patient and dependable while multi-tasking.

A little bit about me
Hello, I am 28 years old, have 2 siblings (both sisters) and 2 pets (1 dog, 1 cat). I absolutely love animals, am a very talkative, bubbly, and a very active individual.
My experience in child care started with babysitting for teacher's children (as my parents were in the education system), then became a certified teacher assistant for 1st-5th grade, early in college. In 2021 I helped 2 children (ages 6 and 9) with e-learning through the pandemic. We made sure to have loads of fun! I also picked up a 3 and 7 year old from school & watched them afterwards for a couple of hours. I have experience with a 6 month-old & a newborn (my favorite ages). Most recently I was a personal assistant to a CEO for a bit under a year & realized I missed nannying tremendously, so I made the switch.
I can help out with tidying up as I am a very organized & clean individual. I have a very reliable newly purchased 2021 mid-sized SUV & I do not/never have smoked and have my CPR/first aid certification.

A little bit about me
Hi families! My name is Deborah, and I’ve been working with kids professionally since 2016. I started out at the YMCA as an after-school counselor for children ages 5–8 and loved it so much that I went on to become a summer camp counselor for two seasons. In 2018, I began working as a private nanny, and since then I’ve had the joy of caring for little ones from newborns all the way up to 12 years old.
I’m fluent in both English and Portuguese, which makes it fun to introduce kids to a new language through songs, games, and everyday conversation. I’m also currently working on my bachelor’s degree online, which allows me to stay flexible and dedicated to the families I work with.
My goal as a nanny is always to create a warm, positive environment where children can thrive and parents can feel at ease knowing their little ones are in great hands!

A little bit about me
Hi! I’m a proud mom of two amazing young adults (ages 23 and 19) and an involved aunt to six wonderful kids, from 4 months to 17 years old. I’ve been caring for children since I was 15 years old, and now at 43, I bring over 25 years of hands-on experience in childcare—including more than 16 years as a dedicated teacher.
I hold a bachelor’s degree and am currently working toward my master’s, continuing to grow my knowledge and passion for child development and education. I’ve worked with children of all ages and love creating a warm, safe, and structured environment where they can learn, laugh, and feel supported.
Outside of work, I enjoy staying active and spending quality time with my family. I love sports, going to the beach, fishing, and making the most of life’s simple moments. I’m dependable, nurturing, and truly love being a positive influence in a child’s life.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Em, and I have several years of experience nannying for a variety of families. I take an individualized, thoughtful approach to care, always aiming to meet each child’s unique needs and personality. I have primarily worked with children ages 4–18, with additional experience caring for younger children as well.
I also hold a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, which informs the way I support emotional development, communication, and overall well-being. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where kids feel seen, heard, and valued. As one of five siblings, I’ve gained firsthand experience navigating the dynamics of a busy household. I love being fully present with those I work with while building genuine and authentic connections with each one.

Hello, my name is Veronica, I’m 25 yo and I’m from Brazil. I’m an Aupair in NY (2 years with the same family), and I will move to Tampa on January 12th. When I came to this house the little boy was 10m and the girl 1y and 10m. I do have experience whit potty and food training (because of my sister I also have experience with sleep training). On our day we like to read, color, play outside, and study Portuguese.
I have a brother (22yo) and a sister (10yo) both are autistic and my sister also has ADHD, I’ve been taking care of her since she was born, so I have experience with all the new born, toddler, and infant phases. I understand and know how to deal with children on the spectrum.
I’m a bachelor in International Relations, my first language is Portuguese, but I speak English, and Spanish, and I can understand Italian.
I love animals.

"Veronica is amazing! She took care of our two littles during the height of Covid. They were 10 months and 22 months when she came on board. They are now turning 3 and 4. She’s very kind, creative, responsible, timely, flexible and neat. She does not sit on her phone nor place the kids in front of the tv. She interacts, does arts and crafts, gets the kids outside and cooks. She is eager to please the children she cares for while keeping a good routine and setting limits. She is the #1 person responsible for potty training both kids. I would highly recommend Veronica to anyone, anywhere! She will take amazing care of your kiddos!!!"
