A little bit about me

I am 19, great enthusiasm, great energy, and a great listener. I am excited to work with kids to give them the best caring and give them the best experience needed to end the day off with good and positive energy. I have been working with kids my whole life, and when I say kids I mean my sisters and brothers, I am the oldest so everytime my mother would go outside I would be watching them and it was always fun, smooth and positive.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Saharla, and I'm a 19-year-old student at the University of Southern California (USC) looking for a nanny position in NYC this summer. I'm originally from Boston.

While I am new to professional nannying, I have experience working with children through after-school tutoring, where I helped students stay engaged, build confidence, and complete schoolwork in a supportive environment. Through this, I developed patience, strong communication skills, and the ability to connect with kids of different ages and personalities.

I genuinely love spending time with children and am very energetic, creative, and hands-on. Whether it's helping with homework, playing games, doing crafts, spending time outdoors, or coming up with fun activities, I enjoy creating a positive environment where kids feel supported and have fun. I am responsible, dependable, and excited to help make this a great summer for your family!

A little bit about me

Soy proactiva, con mucha energía, me adapto con facilidad, me encantan los niños y la limpieza, actualmente estoy estudiando inglés y entiendo un poco. Soy Colombiana, auxiliar de enfermería y he cuidado por más de dos años a mi bebe, al entrar a la escuela, mis jefes me ofrecen part time, por mis obligaciones me gusta trabajar tiempo completo. Mi jefe es de Bélgica y solo habla Francés e Inglés y muy poco español, su esposa si habla español, asi que la comunicación es buena con ambos. En ocasiones me han dejado al hijo mayor para su cuidado y me he qquedado con los dos niños sin problema, ellos son muy activos y están acostumbrados a ejercitarse mucho por sus padres.
