A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Angela, and I have dedicated my entire career to caregiving, with over 35 years of experience in healthcare and child care.

I began my journey as a live-in nanny, caring for a newborn from birth until the age of five. Since then, I have worked with children of all ages, gaining valuable experience in creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. My passion for caregiving led me to become a private aide for a family, where I spent 20 years providing compassionate care for two sick adults and their elderly parents.

I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate effectively with diverse families. In addition to providing attentive child care, I am happy to prepare meals, tidy up, and ensure your little one is in a clean, organized, and loving space.

I look forward to becoming a trusted part of your family’s routine and providing the best care possible for your child!
