I do not smoke, drink or do any drugs. I am infant/child CPR/First Aid certified. I take covid very seriously, am fully vaccinated and up to date on all other vaccines.

A little bit about me

My name is Maria Rose Odulana. I am a medwife I had work in the hospital for 2 years. I have the passion of caring for children. When I was still a midwife in my country (Philippines) my job was to care for mother and child. And I am really good at it. Kids use to be drown to me. With that being said I know that I am the best fit for a nanny opportunity.
