A little bit about me

Dear Parents,
My name is Itala Giraldo. I am from Peru. I'm 41 years old, and I'm a very qualified nanny. I have 10 years of experience with infants, toddlers, and children up to teenagers. I also have great references that I am happy to provide. I drive my car. I am a citizen of the USA. I have my CPR and First Aid certificates. I'm a responsible, well-organized, hardworking person. I always follow directions well. I'm a very outgoing person. I enjoy spending time with children, doing fun activities with them like going to the library, and playground, and also doing arts and crafts. I enjoy being able to give that child one-on-one with them and helping them to grow. I like to go to the park and do play-dates with my children's friends. I would like to work Monday to Friday live out and work 40 to 45 hours a week. I would like to remain in the areas of Alexandria,Falls Church ,Arlington, and Mclean. My favorite thing about child care is being able to help them develop and learn.

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Pauline! I was born and raised in Alexandria, Virginia and I love to work with children! I want to make sure every child I watch and take care of has a positive experience with me and I can help them grow and learn, ensure their safety, and create an environment they can thrive in. Treating each child with care, respect, and love comes very easily to me. Being able to work with children has always been very rewarding to me and I love meeting new kids and families! I am also up to date with my vaccinations to work.

A little bit about me

I am a mom of four beautiful children, who are between eight and sixteen years of age. I have experience watching kids starting from infancy to twelve and onward, and love working with children as well! I am a kind, warm, caring individual who is a certified massage therapist (that also loves to cook)!

My kiddos and I like to go for walks, play rough-and-tumble games that let them get excess energy out safely, do arts and crafts, play in water, build with LEGOs, play video games to help improve concentration and the ability to take instruction... the list just goes on, we have TONS of fun :) I’m so excited to spend time with your little and let their personality truly flourish into their fullest selves! I believe in more child-led activities, though there is always structure and schedules to keep. Please reach out as I am available during these times to help with anything you might need to help make life easier.
