A little bit about me

My name is Mary and I just relocated from DC as a full time nanny. I have been a nanny for over a year, and a babysitter for 4 years. I am a musician, and I love to sing for children - so if your children love Disney princesses - Tiana, Moana, Rapunzel you name it.. I can be that person for them. I also offer piano lessons for children! Though I wouldn't like to consider myself as fluent in Spanish, I do speak the language intermediately, and am a fluent speaker of ASL. Happy to offer lessons in ASL as well. A learning beginner of Arabic and Vietnamese.

"Mary was wonderful! My kids (age 2 and 5) warmed to her very quickly. She was kind but firm, full of energy and patience and knew just how to interact with my kids. She was safety conscious and I could see she was observant and attentive. She was on time and reliable and very professional in her communications with me. We all loved her!"

"Catherine is the daughter of one of my oldest friends. She needed a place to go during the day when her mom went back to work after Covid, so she drove down to our house to help me with our foster baby(ies) once a week. She walks in and takes over! Changing diapers, feeding, holding, cuddling, playing music for them to enjoy ... without being asked. She has a natural love for babies and though she did not have many opportunities in the past to connect with them, she has made up for lost time by loving on the babies in our home! She is attentive and tender and finds great joy in caring for their needs. We only had her fo a short time before summer, but I know we would have enjoyed a full year with her in our home and serving our babies!"

"To Whom It May Concern, It is my pleasure to recommend Andrea Sánchez, who worked as a nanny for our family for two years. During this time, Andrea proved to be an extremely responsible, caring, and competent caregiver for our children. Andrea took care of our two children, whose ages ranged from newborn to two years old. From the very first day, she demonstrated an exceptional ability to connect with them, quickly earning their trust and affection. Her communication skills and patience were essential in creating a positive and safe environment in our home. She was always punctual and carried out all of her responsibilities flawlessly. Additionally, she organized educational and recreational activities that contributed to the intellectual and emotional development of our children. I highly recommend Andrea for any nanny position.
