A little bit about me

I have over nine years of childcare experience in private households in the U.S. and internationally, including long-term nannying and a live-in au pair role in Italy during a semester abroad. I’ve cared for children from infancy through adolescence and am very comfortable supporting routines, development, and daily household structure.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and have additional experience in youth coaching and student ambassador work, which strengthened my communication, organization, and leadership skills.
I would describe myself as calm, grounded, and reliable, with a warm and patient approach to childcare. I focus on creating a structured, supportive environment where children feel secure and understood, and I’m very attentive to emotional and developmental needs.
I also enjoy staying active, traveling, cooking, and learning about different cultures, and I bring a flexible, positive, and team-oriented energy into every home I work in.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Isadora, and I’m currently a college student. I’ve always had a strong connection with childcare, especially from growing up helping raise my two younger siblings. I spent years taking care of them and their friends, planning activities, helping with homework, cooking meals, and keeping everything clean and organized, so being around kids feels very natural to me.
Back home, I was essentially their go-to nanny, and that experience taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s needs. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids can feel comfortable and cared for.
