A little bit about me

I’m a Czech native from Prague, living in the Coquitlam area with my Italian husband and our three wonderful children—twins (a 7-year-old boy and girl) and our 10-year-old son.

As a mother, I understand both the joys and challenges of raising children. That’s why I’m passionate about creating a loving, nurturing environment where kids can thrive. I’m warm, easygoing, and caring, and I focus on supporting each child’s well-being and development—emotionally, physically, and socially. Whether it’s helping with milestones, encouraging creativity, or simply being a steady, supportive presence, I genuinely enjoy seeing children grow with confidence.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have extensive experience working with children, starting as an au pair in the UK, where I cared for a 5-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl. Later, I ran my own childcare service, looking after children aged 2 to 4 years. In addition to my professional experience, I am a mother to twins, now 7 years old, and my firstborn son, who is 10.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Throughout my work, I have always focused on engaging children in activities that promote their physical and emotional development. This includes play that supports motor skills, arts and crafts, singing, and both reading and storytelling. We also enjoyed daily outings to parks, animal zoos, and playgrounds, where they could explore and learn about the world around them.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters most to me as a nanny is making sure children feel safe, loved, and understood. I want them to feel happy and confident just being themselves. It’s also really important to me to build trust with the family and work together as a team to support their child.

My experience with special needs children...

While I do not have formal experience caring for children with special needs, I’m open-minded, patient, and very willing to learn. I understand that every child is unique, and I’m committed to creating a supportive, respectful, and nurturing environment for all children.

I’m happy to follow any specific routines or strategies that work best for your child, and I’m eager to work closely with parents to ensure consistent care and communication. I'm also open to training or guidance to better understand and support your child’s individual needs.
