A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm Mia. I'm energetic, creative, and an easygoing person who enjoys the simple things in life. I have been a nanny for 3 years and I enjoyed every minute of it. I am confident in providing routines, cooking, meal preparation, organizing activities, cleaning, bath time, and bedtime. I love working with children because it gives me joy and in the next few months I will become a postpartum doula.
