Hello! I am a 26 year old female currently enrolled at the University of Florida in the college of nursing accelerated program.From 2018 to 2021 I worked at Baby Gator Lake Alice as a volunteer, then a substitute, and then as a full time teacher. I worked with 6 month olds to 5 year olds. I also completed a required(as an undergrad) internship at the center as an instructor for healthy habits.I loved this job and will always cherish it as my first ever full time job.After working their for 4 years I decided it was time to move on and accepted a job as a nanny.For the first family I took care of a 8 month old boy and completed other tasks such as folding laundry, cleaning rooms, and meal prepping. This was from August 2021 to December 2021.In the next family, I took care of 2 and 4 year old girls. This was from December 2021 to June 2022.In the next family, I took care of a 3 month old baby, from June 2022 to May 2023 due to starting nursing school. I still occasionally sit for this family.Throughout all my nanny jobs I completed tasks such as providing safety, creating learning opportunities and activities, read books, drove to libraries and parks, made breakfast, lunches and snacks, cleaned up with the kids, and much more. While I am in nursing school I am working part time as a registered behavior technician at Bass Therapy.I am CPR certified & Covid vaccinated.My days are busy from early mornings to 5pm during the week. I would love evening and weekend shifts.

Hi! My name is Cloe. I am a nursing major and I want to go into pediatrics. I love kids, I have a few siblings of my own that I have raised from birth! My youngest sister (7) knows something as “besties day” where we go to the park, get our nails done, get some food and maybe ice cream! It is the highlight of my day to see that little girl smile and cherish those memories.

I grew up with and have always had the driest love for children and since I was younger have always been the family babysitter.
