A little bit about me
I have been working with kids for about two years now, and I absolutely love the work that I do! I have developed such a passion and patience for working with kids and I feel as though I've found my meaning in life since I started working with kids. In my free time when I'm not working, I love to paint, draw, or sew. I love doing anything that causes you to use your creativity.

A little bit about me
Hi, I'm April, and I absolutely adore kids! At 21, coming from a big Hispanic family, I've always been surrounded by children. Family means everything to me, and caring for kids isn't just a tradition; it's a passion. I've been taking care of my siblings and neighborhood kids since a early age, and honestly, their laughter and smiles make my day. I even have a goddaughter who I love to pieces soon to have another! I treat every child like they're my own, showering them with love, care, and attention. I've even handled situations like kids choking (I know how to help them quickly and calmly!) and minor injuries (I'm great with first aid). I'm so excited at the possibility of bringing that same joy and dedication to your family as a nanny!
