Hello! I’m Lucia Interiano, a senior at Loyola University. Originally from El Salvador, I now live in Miami. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish and have a passion for working with children. I’ve gained valuable experience by helping my mom at her kindergarten from a young age, and I’ve been babysitting for nearly four years, mostly in Miami. I’m skilled in meal prepping, bathing, arts and crafts, and more. I’m also comfortable with pets, especially dogs, and I do dog sitting in my free time. I’m flexible with schedules and available mostly in the evenings!

Hi! My name is Jackie and here's a little about me. I'm a sophomore in college currently majoring in psychology with a chance for history education. I've been babysitting/nannying for the past year or so but prior to that I lifeguarded and taught swim lessons for 3+ years. Personality wise, I'm outgoing and funny (or at least I think I am), with safety always being my number one concern. I also can drive, don't smoke and I am AED/CPR/First Aid certified. In terms of specialized experience, I have a gluten allergy (celiacs) so I take allergies very seriously as well.
