"Manuela, or 'Ibiba', is wonderful with children. I interacted with her at the school she worked at, on a weekly basis. I got to know her as a generous, kind, supportive and fun caregiver and as a professional team-player. We became friends, as well. She is trustworthy, fair, kind, intelligent, and creative. Ibiba helps children to grow and learn, play as community members, resolve conflict effectively and learn new language and art skills. I highly recommend her, and trust her to do best by the children she cares for. She will be an excellent caregiver for the children in your life.
Please call me with any questions.
Best wishes,

A little bit about me
Hi there! I’m Sofia, and I love working with kids of all ages. With four years as a tennis coach, two years working at a sleep-away summer camp, and lots of babysitting for younger children, I bring energy and enthusiasm to every interaction. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, which helps me connect with kids and families alike. As a Christian, I value a positive and respectful environment, and I’m known for being flexible and easygoing. I don’t drink or party, so you can count on me to provide a safe and nurturing space for your little ones. When I'm not working my husband and I love to go on road trips and enjoy all the good food spots! I’m happy to assist with light house duties and meal prep if needed. I’m pet-friendly and love spending time with furry friends! I’m looking for a full-time or part-time position, and I’m also available for date nights, unexpected meetings, or emergencies. I’m excited about the possibility of joining your family!

How to Hire a Bilingual Nanny in Portland, ME
Nanny Lane helps you find a bilingual nanny in Portland, ME who can care for your children in more than one language.
We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.
What Is a Bilingual Nanny?
A bilingual nanny speaks English and at least one other language, such as Spanish, French, Mandarin, or Portuguese, and uses both with the children. Some families want a native speaker to introduce a second language from an early age, and others need a nanny who can communicate with a relative or care for a child who speaks another language at home.
Common Responsibilities of Bilingual Nannies in Portland, ME
A bilingual nanny handles the usual childcare tasks, such as meals, play, outings, and routines, while speaking the second language during everyday activities. Many also read stories, sing songs, and play games in that language, so children pick it up naturally rather than from flashcards.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Decide how much of the day you want in the second language and how fluent the nanny needs to be. Ask about their background in the language and any experience helping children learn it. Fluency varies, so it helps to have part of the interview in the language. If you need a specific language, mention it in your job description so nannies can find you.
Bilingual Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Which languages do you speak, and how did you learn them?
- How would you use the second language with my children during the day?
- Have you helped children learn or keep up a second language before?
- Are you comfortable speaking only in that language for part of the day?
- Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
