Hi, my name is Jillian! I am 32 years old and would love to help out with your sitting needs. I am a Bachelor of Business Administration College graduate and now have found my calling with childcare. I have a very open weekend and evening schedule and am frequently available last minute. I just started my first teaching job as a VPK Assistant Teacher. When it comes to prior experience, I have extensive history in this role as I have been babysitting / nannying for about 20 years. I have cared for children ages newborn to 16 years old. I have experience with children with special needs. I have helped with sleep training and potty training. Overnight and vacation care is also available. On top of this, I am comfortable working with up to five children including twins and sick children. I am happy to help with homework, swimming supervision, meal prep and mealtime and following a schedule of activities while giving rides in the family's vehicle. I can help with variety of housework. I am experienced with food allergies as I have my own and understand the severity. I am also understanding of following different diets as I am gluten free and vegan for 8+ years. I also have my own reliable car. Pets are also not a problem, and I am very comfortable with them. I have lived with and cared for cats, dogs, fish, guinea pigs and rabbits.

Hi, I’m Raina and I have lived in Tampa for almost 2 years. My mother and grandmother have worked in childcare/education for over 25 years serving ages 1-15. Their history has influenced my experience in babysitting and my passion for developing young minds. I currently serve at my church as a Service Lead for the 2-3 year old classroom and a Big Sister mentor for a 5th grade girl with Big Brother Big Sister mentoring program. I have previously served as a substitute teacher for grades K-12 and a youth group leader for high school girls. In my free time I am with my family or planning trips to Disney World for myself or friends. I am so excited to meet your family and my hope in my time with you is to create a lasting impact through care, attention, and fun! Can’t wait to meet you!

I lead the special needs ministry for a large church. We rely on weekly help from sitters we book on SitterTree. The app makes it easy to connect with sitters in our area who have experience working with children with disabilities. We now have several Favorites who we book consistently. SitterTree has been a wonderful resource for our ministry.
