Recent reference

"I was privileged to employ Liz as my nanny. Liz was reliable, cheerful, loving and hardworking as she looked after my daughter. Liz has literally seen my 8 year old daughter grow up and of course my daughter grew very fond to Liz. She has a good understanding of the needs and abilities of children and is warm, nurturing, and responsive. Liz has always brought a professional, organized, thoughtful, and expert approach to the care of my daughter. Liz would keep my daughter active with safe activities at home, furthermore, would help my daughter set goals (personal and developmental), and reach them happily and consistently. Liz was always respectful of our families cultural traditions and was able to follow our family’s reasonable rules; not to mention my in-laws and parents consider Liz to be a great friend. Liz is a gifted nanny and person. She is loving, kind, warm, and energetic. She is able to work in the intimate family environment with integrity and professionalism."

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Wendy. I am an experienced and dedicated nanny with a strong passion for supporting children during their early stages of development. I have experience caring for children from newborns (as young as 6 days old) up to 10 years of age.

I am a responsible, loving, and reliable caregiver who values respect and honesty. I adapt easily to each family’s routine and always strive to create a safe, nurturing, and positive environment for children.

My English is basic; however, it has never been a challenge in my previous positions. I am originally from Guatemala and consider myself an energetic, dynamic, and happy person. I enjoy outdoor activities and engaging children in age-appropriate play.

I am happy to provide personal and work references and am open to background checks and drug testing. I would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your little ones.
