About Martina

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi there! My name is Martina. In 2025 I got my Bachelor's in Family, Youth, and Community Sciences from the University of Florida, and I'm passionate about helping children and youth unlock their full potential. With over three years of experience in my field, I create engaging and supportive environments meant to address individual needs. I actively listen and observe each child in order to understand them and adapt my approach. I am engaging and care deeply. I value open communication and clear expectations with both children and parents. I also speak both English and Spanish fluently. I would love to care for your child!

Martina regularly cares for our young children and has been an absolute gift to our family. She is warm, steady, and deeply attuned to children in a way that reflects a genuine understanding of early childhood development. She doesn’t simply supervise, she engages. Whether she’s guiding structured activities, supporting creative play, or helping navigate big toddler emotions, she does so with patience, insight, and intention. She understands how young children learn and grow, and she meets them right where they are. I’ve especially appreciated how she balances nurturing care with gentle structure, encouraging independence while still making my children feel completely safe and supported. We feel incredibly fortunate to work with her and are truly grateful for the care, professionalism, and thoughtfulness she brings into our home. Any family would be lucky to work with her!
