A little bit about me
Hi, I'm Nelly, and I'll tell you a little about my experience so you can rest easy while I do my job. I was a kindergarten assistant at a multi-age school in Peru. I worked as a nanny for a year in New York, where I cared for a 3-month-old baby, a 2-year-old boy, and a 3-month-old girl. I also cared for two siblings, ages 3 and 6, whom I adore so much. I know the importance of changing diapers, sterilizing bottles, washing dishes properly, early stimulation to encourage rolling and crawling, sleep routines, good feeding schedules, and what to give them so they eat well. By the way, I also love to cook. I strive to keep them entertained with educational games, fostering their creativity without the help of screens like tablets or cell phones. I also don't smoke and consider myself a respectful, kind, honest, and sincere person. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to write to me!

"Nelly is a great nanny, but best of all she is a very good person. Everyday she brings her best self to our home to create a good atmosphere. She played with our son all the time while also having the responsibility of doing his laundry, preparing his food and cleaning up his bedroom and toys weekly.
She's very proactive and fast learner."

! I’m Dani and I’m excited to help care for your little ones! I have 4 years of experience working with children of all ages, and I’m passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s assisting with homework, organizing creative activities, or simply providing a listening ear, I’m dedicated to ensuring your child feels cared for and supported.

I enjoy working with kids because you find joy in their energy, curiosity, and unique perspectives. Children often bring a sense of playfulness and creativity to everyday moments, which can be fulfilling. I also feel a sense of purpose in guiding and nurturing their growth, helping them learn new things, and being a positive influence in their lives. Additionally, the connections you build with kids can be deeply rewarding, as they often show genuine affection and trust.
