Other skills:
- Reading/math tutor (I have been trained in phonics-based approaches to reading and am currently enrolled in an Orton-Gillingham program.)
- Swim teacher (D1 collegiate athlete, and have taught swim lessons to ages 2 - 18.)
- Dog-lover, and would be happy to care for your furry friend while nannying!
- Very active (profile picture is of my recent 70.3!)

A little bit about me
I’ve been working as a nanny for 5 years caring for children from infancy to 8 years old. I really enjoy creating a safe, fun, and structured environment where kids can learn and grow. I love planning age-appropriate activities — whether that’s arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, or educational games — and I’m also comfortable with routines like meal prep, naps, and homework help. Families I’ve worked with describe me as reliable, patient, and nurturing, and I take pride in becoming a positive part of a child’s daily life. I’m looking for a family where I can build a long-term relationship and really support their needs.”

Hello, my name is Edna Martínez. I am a caring, patient, and reliable nanny with over 20 years of experience working as a teacher with children and young people of different ages. Throughout my career, I have developed a deep understanding of children’s emotional, social, and developmental needs, always providing guidance with kindness, structure, and respect.
I truly enjoy supporting families by offering attentive, loving care and helping create a calm, safe, and nurturing home environment. I can assist with daily routines, playtime, creative and educational activities, meals, and light household tasks. I value clear communication, trust, and building meaningful relationships with both children and parents.
I am especially interested in a live-in position, where I can become a stable, supportive, and long-term presence in a family’s life. I would be happy to share more about my experience and learn about your family’s needs.

Nanny Hanna
"Hanna had a warm and patient approach to connect with the children of different ages.
She was supportive and encouraging of each student and trying to help them learn, interact, and build confidence.
I believe her skills and conduct will transfer well into a nanny position."

Nanny Sofi
"My kids love Sofi! Sofi is the kindest and sweetest. She helped with my kids while I had to work. I was nervous at first finding someone to trust with my kids but soon realized I had nothing to worry about with Sofi. She stared with our family when my kids were 4, 6 and 9. She formed relationships with each of my kids and took such good care for them. I highly recommend Sofi!!"
