A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Nubia! I have four younger siblings- from 1 year to 9 years old- and have been helping to care for them since I was 14 years old. However I have 3 years of experience consistently spending full days caring for them. I know how to turn tears into laughs, use patience in tense moments, and meet children where they’re at. I believe in gentle parenting and love to be a calming voice during moments of high stress.

My time watching my younger siblings has taught me also how to set up a routine that works for multiple age ranges! I can maneuver tough ages that require different levels of attention at once. I love using music, exercise, and learning times to structure the day and keep it interesting. I’m also highly attentive and always make sure the environment and activities are safe and attended to properly. I’m the type of babysitter that will do science experiments, dance parties, and fun lessons to help kids stretch their minds in a fun and age appropriate manner :)

Recent reference

"I highly recommend Rita. She was our Nanny when my son was 4 months to 14 months old. She was a wonderful source of knowledge and companionship, while I tried to learn about being a first time parent. She was fantastic with my son, and also helped me with small tasks around the home. I was working full-time and just very overwhelmed. Our son got a place at daycare, so Rita left our family. We already miss her dearly."
