A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Icis Ortiz, and I’m 22 years old with a true passion for working with young children, especially infants and toddlers. I previously worked as an Infant and Toddler Teacher at the Children's Center of Brighton, where I gained valuable experience creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for little ones to learn and grow.
I currently work as a nanny and absolutely love building strong connections with the children and families I care for. My current family will no longer need care after June, so I’m excited to find a new family to support and grow with.
I’m a caring, patient, and dependable person who enjoys helping children explore the world through play, creativity, and everyday adventures. Outside of childcare, I love to travel and make meaningful memories, and I bring that same sense of fun, curiosity, and warmth into my work with children every day. I look forward to becoming a trusted and positive part of your family’s life!
