A little bit about me

Hello! Big sister of 5 and always the live in babysitter when I was with my family. I’ve babysat up to 15 kids at a time with my little brothers friends over. I am good and multi-tasking and wrangling in multiple kiddos. I’ve had experience with all ages, and enjoy all of their company :) I am more than willing and happy to do any special requests or certain routines, doing something a specific way or whatever it is I’m happy to learn and do things as your family would normally. I love reading and arts & crafts but also enjoy outdoor activities and playtime ! I am experienced in the kitchen and can make basic meals and follow recipes. I also have housecleaning experience and would be happy to pick up as I can and have opportunity.

A little bit about me

I am very patient with children and love helping them learn while also having fun.

Safety is my utmost concern and I carefully monitor children when I take them on outings to the park or to museums. I understand good nutritional choices and I carefully prepare meals that are healthy for kids but that they also love to eat.

A little bit about me

Greetings! My name is Loraine Aceto, and at 25 years old, I'm excited to connect with families seeking a nurturing and engaging nanny. My journey in childcare spans 5 rewarding years in daycare settings at Imagination Station and Chickadee, where I've gained hands-on experience in all aspects of child well-being. Safety is paramount to me, and I am both CPR and First Aid certified. I also have my own car and a valid driver's license for reliable transportation. I love cleaning and cooking so am willing to do both or either! What truly sets me apart is my passion for communication and development. I am fluent in 5 languages and have a deep understanding of language development and developmental milestones in children. I am knowledgeable in sign language and also volunteered for causes such as Sanfilippo syndrome. I am one who values safety too, I am looking forward to finding a family where I can contribute my skills, energy, and dedication to their children's growth and happiness.
