"Thando was our daughter's nanny from when our baby was 4 months to 16 months old. My husband and I are first-time parents and our families live far away, but Thando made our lives so much easier with her extensive background and knowledge in infant and toddler-care. Thando took care of all of our baby's needs, did all the daily baby-related chores, helped our daughter thrive, and kept our minds at ease as we returned to work--we couldn't have asked for a better experience. What's more is she genuinely loves babies and enjoys spending time with them, and her sense of humor was always a welcome pick-me up for 2 tired parents! Happy to chat in more detail with prospective employers over the phone."

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.
