A little bit about me

I'm an energy-driven, flexible nanny with a sundry care background. I'm prepared to not only care attentively for your kiddos, but assist in any household/pet chores, meal prep, errands, and last minute calls as well (because I understand life gets in the way). Something I will always bring with me into any employment opportunity, is my love for the creative and inventive side of learning and growing up. All throughout my life, and through school of course, I've been involved in a numerous amount of drama productions, art shows, and film/photography courses; so I cannot express enough how highly I view the arts and bringing out the imaginative side of kids as well!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Larissa. I am a responsible, caring, and patient young woman from the Dominican Republic, currently finishing my senior year of high school. Although I do not have professional babysitting experience, I have a lot of experience taking care of children because I helped raise and care for my four younger sisters. I know how to cook, keep a home clean, and make sure children are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am organized, trustworthy, and dedicated, and I enjoy creating a positive and calm environment for children.

A little bit about me

With over 25 years of experience as a nanny, I can truly say that caring for children is not just my job, it’s my passion. Being part of a child’s growth, discovery, and everyday milestones has been one of the greatest privileges of my life, and it’s something I am deeply proud of.

As a mother of three, I understand firsthand the joys and challenges of raising children. I bring that same love, patience, and dedication into the families I work with. My goal is always to create a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where children can thrive.

In addition to childcare, I love to cook and enjoy helping parents keep their households running smoothly. Whether it’s preparing a healthy meal, supporting routines, or lending a hand wherever needed, I take pride in being a dependable and caring partner to parents.

I look forward to bringing my experience, energy, and heart into your home.

"I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Luz who has been an extraordinary caregiver for our family over the past 4 years. She will no longer be working with us only because my youngest will be starting daycare, and we are now in need of part-time care. With over 25 years of experience, she brings not only expertise but also warmth, dedication, and genuine love for children. She has truly become like family to us, and my children adore her. Her care goes far beyond the basics. She consistently prepared incredibly healthy and varied meals, maintained a very clean and organized environment, and created a safe and nurturing space for my kids to grow. She is reliable, thoughtful, and endlessly kind. I cannot recommend her highly enough to any family fortunate enough to welcome her into their home. She will care for your children as if they were her own, and you will quickly see what a gift she is. If you have any questions, I would be more than happy to share more about our experience."

"Michelle was hired to work as a nanny in my home about 4.5 years ago, and I would certainly recommend her work. Michelle has demonstrated tremendous responsibility in taking care of my son. She is kind, trustworthy and great with children. It is clear to me that working as a nanny is a passion for Michelle. She loves working with the children, and I see this manifest in her communication skills and creative ideas for activities. She was always able to keep my son occupied and most importantly, safe. Ultimately, Michelle is an excellent nanny because she is so trustworthy. She is always on-time and extremely responsible. My family has never known her not to be forthcoming and honest."
