Hello there! My name is Ana. I am 29 years old from Colorado, USA. I first came to Florence as an au pair (four years ago) for an Italian family. If you want to know some history about Florence, I can share many secrets with you! I've been to all the museums way more than once (Uffizi 14 times!) and I've taken countless walking tours.
Since arriving here, I have been working with children in various ways. I’ve been with International Babysitters for almost 4 years! In the summer months, I am an English tutor/ camp counselor for Italian children who want to learn English in a fun and engaging way. We do science experiments, water games, make small skits to perform for parents, and much more. The kids learn a lot and it is so much fun! On top of that, I am also certified as an online English teacher for Chinese children. So, you could say I love working with kids!
I have a real natural ability to connect with them and make them feel understood, but most importantly have fun and be safe. I have 15 years of experience with kids of all ages and cultural backgrounds; including newborns and toddlers. Since I have a very flexible work schedule, I am comfortable staying overnight and/or travelling to other cities /countries. I always find a way to fit in naturally whilst allowing the family to connect and bond when together. Trust me, your children will love me! I cook, I clean, I see what needs to be done and I do it. I look forward to meeting you and your family!
Hello, I am Aida. With a background of music and cinema I have wondered around the world for quite some years and after living in Greece I am settling down in Florence, Tuscany. I have stayed as an au-pair with several families in the past, as well as nanny. My path has taken me to yoga, I have been teaching since 2014 and am completing my shiatsu formation in the near future. I am fluent in English, Italian, french and Greek while my mother tongue is Lithuanian. I am deeply connected to nature and this is definitely one of my highlights - holistic and wholesome way of living, so I love to engage children in exploring playing outdoors, watching nature etc. My approach is somewhat towards Steiner and Montessori.

Hello, families! My name is Pia Bächi. I am 20 years old and originally from Switzerland and Ecuador. I am currently living in Switzerland. Now I am in an intermediate year before I start my sports and French studies. I speak Italian, Spanish, French, German and English. In my free time I do Aerobics Gymnastics at a high level. I like to spend time with my friends and family. I love to discover and try new things. I would describe myself as a humorous and caring person. I love spending time with children because they always bring a smile to my face. I like to live clean and tidy. I have been in my sports club for
almost 10 years that is why I have already been given the responsibility to be the coach of the young children in our club for 4 years now. I love to teach them new things not only because I love to share my knowledge but also because I love to make an emotional connection with them. From my own education, I have learned that when one shows respect, honesty and good communication, relationships with others can only go well. With
children, I have had good experiences showing patience, love and firmness when the situation requires it. That is why I believe that sport is a good way to transmit values like solidarity, discipline and the joy of sharing time together. I can’t wait to get to know you and your family soon!

Hi I am Elena, I am half Mexican and half Italian and come from a beautiful city on the Tuscan coast, Viareggio. I moved to Florence 5 years ago to complete my University studies in teacher education and pedagogy. Travelling, languages and music are my biggest passions. I have a lot of experience studying and working abroad with children especially. I have lived in Finland and most recently India where I helped with the opening of a new school.

I'm Alice a 25 years old babysitter. I’m about to do my State Exam in Clinical Psychology and looking forward to finding new precious children to take care of. I have extensive experiences working with children of several ages, from 3 months to 8 years old.

My favorite activities for engaging children includes arts and crafts, including drawing, dancing, singing, playing some music or if there’s the possibility also to cook together, as well as spending time outdoors. I really think we should help the kids to understand what they like to do, what they like to play and also how they like to do it, in order that they can get more and more in touch with their skills, passions and interests: in other words I would love to give them a unique space to their creativity, their fun and be with them with a lot of love.

Hi everyone, I'm Andrea, an Art in Media student that aspires to be a film-maker and an individual who strives to feel connected with the world around me, my life’s biggest objective is to remind everyone how beautiful life really is. I am Mexican, born in the United States and I am 23 years old. Before moving to Milan to attend university, I had lived in 5 different cities between Mexico and the United States and each city shaped me somehow. In Cancun, I cultivated love and care for nature, in Tijuana-San Diego as a frontier worker I built resilience and learned that with a good attitude anything is possible. From all the babies in my family that I have been taking care of since more than 10 years ago, I’ve realized that kids never stop surprising us and teaching us the biggest lessons of the heart. As your kid’s nanny, I promise to always look out for what is best for each of them. I promise to speak to your kids with words of love and patience, play games, make crafts with them and cook delicious and healthy meals when necessary.

I am a TEFL certified teacher with 8+ years of childcare experience through leading after school programs for children at the Hawaii Public Library, assisting in teaching a variety of dance lessons, and working as an Aupair and nanny for many families over the years. I am a native English speaker with a basic level of Spanish. I have taught English to a variety of ages in Bali, Indonesia and in Spain. My passion for helping children learn through hands-on experiences such as art projects, games, songs, and dance resulted in the children being engaged in their learning. I have extensive experience as a nanny with children (ages two months to 5 years old) and this has shown me how to consistently meet their emotional, social, physical, and intellectual needs and how those needs shift depending on a child’s age. I love how eager and curious young children are and I find it easy to be enthusiastic and compassionate with them.

Hello, my name is Florencia, I am 20 years old and I was born in Mexico. However, I lived in United States for a year at a boarding school when I was 13, and now I have been living in Florence for 2 years already since I am doing my Bachelor Degree in Interior Design and I think these experiences helped me so much to be independent and mature. Spanish is my mother tongue but I also speak English and Italian. I started taking care of my little cousins which I adore but my real experience started when I was 15 and used to be a tennis teacher for children between 4-10 years old. After that, I took care of kids around my neighborhood and at the age of 17 I started working on a program called "Prints" in where we used to teach girls how to cook, do handcrafts and dance. I truly enjoy to spend time with children because they get so creative and happy with whatever is on their hands or around them. I am a very open and responsible person who like outdoor activities as much as indoor activities.
Ciao! My name is Honorata, I'm from Poland. I really like taking care of children and I have a great friendship with them.
