A little bit about me

Hi families! My name is Nereydda, and I’m a college student with a passion for caring for others. I speak Spanish and English fluently, and I also know some German from the time I spent living in Germany. I currently take care of a sweet 2-year-old, and I’ve helped care for children in my family and community throughout the years. I truly enjoy creating a safe, fun, and nurturing space for little ones to grow.

I also have experience as a house cleaner, working for many years alongside my mom, so I’m organized, detail-oriented, and happy to help with light cleaning or keeping things tidy. I love music, cooking dinner, being outdoors, crafting, and even shopping — and I enjoy bringing those interests into my time with kids through playful and creative activities.

I’m responsible, warm, and open-minded, and I’d love the opportunity to support your family. Please feel free to reach out — I’d be happy to connect!

Live-In Nanny Seeking Family Placement

Hello! I'm a dependable and nurturing individual looking for a live-in nanny position with a caring family. I bring a calm and supportive presence to the home and am passionate about providing a safe, engaging, and loving environment for children to grow and thrive.

I'm happy to assist with a wide range of needs, including light housekeeping, meal preparation, organizing fun and educational activities, bedtime routines, and more. I'm also comfortable caring for children who are ill or have special needs, and I'm committed to offering patient, attentive care in any circumstance.

While I am not currently CPR and First Aid certified, I am absolutely willing to obtain certification prior to starting a position.

I’m looking for a long-term arrangement where I can become a valued part of the family. I look forward to the opportunity to support your household and care for your little ones as if they were my own. I do have my own child. He is 4.
