A little bit about me

Hello!

My name is Ketellen. I’m from Brazil and I have a degree in Physical Education. I’ve worked in schools with children, teaching sports and ballet, and for the past two years I’ve been working as an au pair for the same family here in the U.S., caring for three children between the ages of 1 and 6.

During this time, I’ve supported them through key developmental stages, like potty training, learning to speak, preparing for preschool, and building independence through daily routines. I love creating fun, active, and creative schedules that match each child’s personality and age.

I have my own car, I’m CPR certified, and I’m happy to help with light housekeeping related to the child. I’m also very organized, responsible, and love creating a positive and safe environment for kids to grow.

I’m currently looking for a long-term, full-time nanny position, and I’m available to start on August 11th. I’d love to find a family where I can be a reliable and caring support.
