A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Isabel 🤍

I’m a caring, responsible, and patient nanny with years of hands-on experience. I’ve been surrounded by children my whole life and have helped care for kids since I was 14, including my 7 nieces and nephews. Being around children truly makes me happy, and I love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn and grow.

I’ve had my driver’s license for almost 5 years with a completely clean record, and I’m very comfortable driving long distances. Safety and reliability are always my top priorities.

I’m currently in college and taking my classes online, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and fully dedicate my time to the families I work with.

I’m also happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and pets. I’m dependable, kind, and always willing to go the extra mile to support your family.

I would love to be a positive, caring presence in your child’s life 💕

A little bit about me

the coolest, most fun, loving nanny in nyc, hands down. i love little kiddos so much, i started working with them right out of high school. you name it, i've done it. i'll soft-launch veggies to your kids, i'll come up with curriculum to study and make it fun, i'll go way more than above and beyond; plus i'll do it fashionably. art & music are my forte; self expression is so important to me and i bring that to my families + kids, all while making sure the kids grow up as respectful, structured little humans. think "Fran Fine", if she was Gen Z.

A little bit about me

More than 10 years ago, I made one of the best decisions of my life: to dedicate myself to what I love and am most passionate about, caring for children. I know it was the right decision because the children I've cared for have left a special mark on my life, just as I have on theirs. In every home where I've worked, parents have been happy and appreciative to see their children joyful and thriving.

I have a college degree and studies in Early Childhood Development. I consider myself patient, creative, and approachable, and I love creating activities that help children feel safe, valued, and motivated to learn. I am fluent in Spanish, and every child I've worked with has had the opportunity to learn Spanish with me, a gift that stays with them for life and strengthens their cognitive development as they grow up bilingual.

Above all, I take my work very seriously. You will quickly see that I am someone you can fully trust and rely on.
