Babysitting & Date Nights in K-Bar Ranch, New Tampa (Tampa, FL)
In-home babysitting for one family at a time, on evenings, weekends and school days.
How we do babysitting in K-Bar Ranch
K-Bar Ranch in New Tampa (Tampa, FL 33647): Master-planned community in the northeast corner of New Tampa, inside Tampa city limits, whose first CDD was created by City of Tampa ordinance in 2005 with Mobley Homes as original developer and M/I Homes and Lennar as later developers; three K-Bar Ranch CDDs, with an amenity center and community pool on Mistflower Ln. Built from 2005, K-Bar Ranch has original owners who stayed and families who bought resales, so the same street can need a sitter and a companion visit. We live a few streets over in Cross Creek, on the same side of the county line.
Babysitting is in your home, for one family at a time, following your routine: dinner, homework, bath, the bedtime you set, and a tidy kitchen when you get back. We never do drop-off or group care and we never bring children to our house, and that is what keeps a babysitter outside Florida's child-care licensing rules. K-Bar Ranch is zoned for Pride Elementary, Benito Middle, Wharton High in Hillsborough County Public Schools.
M/I Homes describes its Gilded Woods section as a gated community, but the K-Bar Ranch CDDs do not publish which villages are gated or how visitors are admitted. Tell us which village you are in and we confirm access at the free meet and greet. The amenity center is resident-fob restricted, so if you want us at the pool or clubhouse with your kids or your dog, we need your fob. We do not take children to a pool without your written permission and your fob. In the rainy season the storms come through between 3 and 6 in the afternoon, so afternoon visits are timed around them. Date nights run $24/hr with a 2-hour minimum, $3/hr per additional child from the same family, and an overnight is $165/night.

Babysitting in K-Bar Ranch: questions we get
Which schools are K-Bar Ranch homes zoned for?
The Hillsborough County Public Schools locator assigns the amenity center address on Mistflower Ln to Pride Elementary, Benito Middle and Wharton High. K-Bar Ranch is Hillsborough County, on Hillsborough's calendar, not Pasco's. Zones are set by the School Board and can change, so check your own address.
How much does a babysitter cost in K-Bar Ranch?
$24/hr with a 2-hour minimum, plus $3/hr per additional child from the same family. Overnights are $165/night from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. That includes dinner, homework, the bedtime routine and a tidy-up before we leave.
Can you pick my kids up after school in K-Bar Ranch?
We do not provide on-demand transportation services, so if your school is walkable from home we can meet them and walk home. Otherwise we meet them at the door and the homework hour starts there.
Can you take my kids to the K-Bar Ranch pool or playground?
Playground and trails, yes. Pool or clubhouse only with your written permission and your resident fob, and only when you have told us which kids can swim. The amenity center is resident-fob restricted, so if you want us at the pool or clubhouse with your kids or your dog, we need your fob.
Do you serve both sides of the county line?
Yes. We live in Cross Creek in New Tampa (Tampa, FL 33647) and work in Wesley Chapel, FL every day, so we keep both school calendars.
