A little bit about me

I was born in Spain in 1959. I am 67 years old. Raised in south of France. At the age of 17 went to live in Birmingham, England for 5 years, and studied to be a trilingual translator. In 1982, for my job I moved to Mexico City, met my partner and worked for 6 years at the Canadian Embassy. For 3 years taught French and English at home and at a bilingual school. In 1993 my partner and I opened a packaging company until 2019 (26 years). In 2023 we separated. At this moment, I am retired but I am still doing office work and teaching languagues. I have 2 sons, André the youngest 32 who lives in Victoria and Carlos 41 in Madrid. I play tennis and walk. I like reading and cooking. In 1984 I published a cook book. I have known many countries and people but none like Victoria where you can feel a special tranquility, I love this place! I think I can still teach and be useful to others.

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m looking to start babysitting or nannying right away, preferably in the Saanich area, but I’m open to other areas in Victoria as well.
I’m hoping to find a family looking for a babysitter or nanny with a set schedule, but I’m also happy to help with occasional care.
A little about me: I’m 18 and graduated this past June with my Double Dogwood Diploma. I absolutely love working with kids and genuinely prefer childcare over a typical full-time job. I’m certified with my Babysitter’s Certificate, First Aid, CPR, and Food Safe, and I have over 5 years of childcare experience such as:
peer tutoring in a Grade 2/3 classroom
Weddings and events caring for multiple children at once
Kids camp leader during spring break
Experience with newborns, toddlers, school-age kids, etc
I’m comfortable caring for up to 4 kids. I’m happy to discuss rates that work best for your family and can provide references as well.
If this sounds like a good fit for your family, feel free to message me!
