Hi, my name is Mandy and I have lived in the St. Pete, FL area for almost 20 years. I love children and I have a 16-year-old daughter. I was a nanny before her birth and have had the pleasure of working with several families since her birth. I have provided care for children within the ages of 2 weeks to 16 years, although I am comfortable with all ages. I am able to assist with all aspects of caring for your children: meals, play/outdoor time, arts and crafts, baths, homework help, etc. I look to build long lasting relationships with my families. I can provide references upon request. I believe in being gentle and fair, yet firm when needed. I seek to create a fun and safe environment for your children! I love playing games with children, reading, coloring/painting, park visits, etc. I hope to hear from you soon!

Mandy has been great with our son, she started helping when he was around two months old and he is now six months old. She has been with us at least 3 days a week for the entire time. The only reason we would not be using her in the future is because we were only in town temporarily. She’s very helpful with laundry and dishes as well. She always sends me great pictures of our son and I love that. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to trust with your child.

Mandy has worked for our family for three years. She cares for our one and a half year-old and our four year old autistic child. She has a warm and compassionate demeanor, yet she is able to set clear boundaries for our children. They look forward to Mandy coming and love the many little art projects she does with them. It’s such a relief to have an experienced professional with great communication at home with our children. 

Mandy has become an extension of our family and taken great care of my two kiddos (now 3.5 and 2) over the past year and a half. She is extremely kind and patient, communicative and trustworthy. She prioritizes the safety of my children and always treats them with respect and love. I was at first anxious to leave my colicky baby with anyone, but Mandy immediately sensed how to soothe and communicate with her (and me, ha ha). She is a great listener, super sweet, and she goes the extra mile to plan activities/baking/crafts for my kids. It has been such a pleasure having Mandy help our family, and we hope to have her with us for a very long time!

Ms Mandy saved my life ! I am a single mom and she was an amazing fit for our family needs. Super flexible , always kind and sweet, my son loves her so much and her family. She was able to work with my crazy schedule , and I could always count on her . Ms Mandy is part of our family now , and I am so blessed she became a friend to me as well. Hands down the best nanny I have ever hired . We are moving and I wish I could take her with us .

Mandy was wonderful with our daughter and cared for her in the evenings for several months until we went back to NY. She has a calm and kind personality, and had no difficulty setting boundaries with our rowdy toddler. She always went above and beyond to help with anything I needed. We strongly recommend her to anyone seeking childcare.

Mandlyn was the best! Super professional and punctual, and very responsive! She even came in a terrible storm where most other people would have probably canceled - truly dependable and lovely. We are from out of town and were in the area on vacation - but if we're ever in st. Pete again we will for sure try and hire Mandlyn!

Mandy helped us care for our infant son for several months and did a great job with him. She was very calm and caring and we felt like we could trust her with our most precious child. She was also receptive to our suggestions and was a good listener. We appreciated the text updates and pictures throughout the day.

Mandy has cared for our children several times, and while they don't generally love having babysitters (they are 11 and 13), they always look forward to their time with Mandy! She is kind, nurturing, and always engages the kids in fun and educational games. She respects (and shares) our interest in keeping the kids OFF electronics! Mandy (with our permission) has always brought her daughter Barbara with her; Barbara is as delightful as Mandy and the kids enjoy having both of them over! You can trust that your children are in great hands with Mandy.

Mandy has watched my 5 month old and she is so great with babies! She has a very calm and caring demeanor so I knew my baby would do very well with her! I will be using Mandy for many years to come and highly recommend her!

Mandy has watched my kids several times in the past and she has taken absolutely wonderful care of them. They beg to have her come back. I trust her completely transporting my kids I have known her for 9 years now and she is nothing if not kind respectful and helpful.

What a wonderful sitter Mandy is! My son was so excited to see her, and cried when she left. We just moved to the area, and I felt like we had known Mandy for years! Highly recommend, and will have her again! 

She did a wonderful job for my two kids ages three and six. She was prompt, easy to talk with, and very dependable. My kids loved spending the time with her and she even got them to bed and asleep for us to come home to a quiet house after date night.

I would highly recommend Mandy to any family who needs a loving and caring person to take care of them. She was taking care of my 8 months old. I like about her the most that she has lots of patient for my baby. She was keeping my daughter busy with some activities and also teaching her some sign language. She is very understanding as well as fast learner. Due to having long experience on babysitting, I was getting good advise from her regarding my baby. 

Mandy really helped our family out when we were in a bind. She was so understanding of our son and showed nothing but patience and love toward him. 

Would highly recommend her!

Mandlyn has been very helpful in taking care of our son. She's reliable and kind. We feel much better as newcomers to the area, knowing that we can count on Mandlyn for after school pick ups, dinner preparation, and engaging kid activities. 

Mandy said excellent with the kids. She cared for my 3 kids- who are sometimes a handful- and handled them with such patience and never got overwhelmed. She also kept them engaged with activities and even brought them pumpkins and tools to decorate them. She is very trustworthy and you can tell she goes above and beyond to make the kids enjoy themselves. 

I've hired Mandy several times now and she is always punctual and great with my 5yr old and my 18mo old. My 18mo old knows when I grab my purse I am leaving and she has a complete meltdown. Mandy is always very calm and reassuring with both my daughter and me at those times. Overall, Mandy has a very calm and soothing demeanor. I believe she is a great influence on both of my children which tend to be a little overly dramatic at times!  I would hire her any time!  

Mandy is great. She has been a real asset to our family. I highly recommend her. 

We hired Mandy to take care of my eight year old little boy and my cousins one and a half year old little boy, fabulous job...my little boy talked about her for a week. I would hire her again!

I would highly recommend Mandy to anyone looking for a loving sitter that gives the same care to your child as she would to hers. She is incredibly calm and patient and is very skilled and keeping a baby busy and occupied. Mandy has watched my baby several times and done activities like feeding her, playing with her, putting her to sleep, taking her for walks, teaching her sign language and singing for her. She also drives kids around to activities, although I never had to use her services in that area since my baby was very little when I used her.  I had never left my baby with an in-home sitter alone and was very apprehensive but I have come to trust Mandy with my precious baby and in many ways people like her put my faith back in the goodness of the world. 
My baby loves her and I would definitely hire her if you are looking for loving and reliable care for your baby!
