A little bit about me

As an experienced child carer and devoted mother to a now-teen premature baby, I bring deep compassion and understanding to every child I care for. With added experience in hospitality, I'm well-versed in allergies especially food-related. With still my added experience as a caregiver (licensed HHA and CNA), I'm more informed and sensitive about the child's health, prevention and safety procedures. My CPR and First Aid certification ensures every child's safety is a top priority.

A little bit about me

I am a responsible, patient, and loving childcare provider with over two years of experience as an au pair in the United States. As the eldest of seven siblings, I began caring for two of my younger brothers at the age of 14 while my mother worked full-time. My natural maturity and strong sense of responsibility allowed me to manage their daily needs with confidence. I also helped care for my baby cousin, whom I love like a niece, since she was an infant. These early experiences shaped my passion for childcare and taught me how to nurture, guide, and support children with love and structure. I specialize in creating safe, stimulating, and emotionally supportive environments where children can grow happily.
