A little bit about me

Hi, My name is Marcely and I'm from Brazil. I'm a caring, fun, and loving person who always does my work with a lot of dedication and love. I would like to share a little about my experience. I started taking care of my little cousin in 2015. I helped change her diapers, looked after her during the day, spent time playing with her, and prepared her meals. After that, I had several other experiences with children. I also volunteered at a daycare, where I worked both with babies and with children between 2 and 3/4 years old. I helped with their development, including speech and walking.
I was also an au pair for two years, from October 2023 to October 2025. I stayed with the same family during that time and took care of three children who were 4, 7, and 10 years old when I started. I prepared their meals, drove them to many activities, It was a wonderful experience where I both taught and learned a lot from the children.
Best regards,
Marcely

A little bit about me

I have been a full time nanny for the past 10 years and love what I do.

I create a positive learning environment, where the kids can work on developmental milestones and enjoy a fun day!

I love crafts, music, playing outside, and going on adventures to places like the nature center and zoo.

My experience includes children of all ages from infant to preteen. I am currently with a family of 3 children (5 months, 2 years, and 4 years). They will be moving out of state at the end of June. My availability will be open at that time.

I am currently looking for families in need of care starting in July.

I look forward to talking with you!
