A little bit about me

Hi my name is Linda, I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule I grew up with a big family which helped out a lot as well as babysitting the neighbor’s kids and cousins, and other families who need the help. I have on the job training, I’m proficient from cleaning to cooking to laundry to light tutoring. I love pets and I’m not allergic to any pets. I speak two languages and I am currently learning one. I am covid vaccinated as well as first aid certified. I’m from Alexandria Virginia and i’m actively searching for gigs and I thought this would be the perfect fit because of my experience in childcare (since 2020 so 2-3 years). Some activities we’ll do are crafts, painting, coloring and kahoot educational or for fun

I am dependable, patient, alert, easygoing and listen to the parents needs. So any allergies, or dietary restrictions, routines, specific and strict schedules are not a problem.

A little bit about me

Fun grandmother vibe with over 25 years of preschool/child care experience. Degree in Early Childhood Education. Love to interact with children on their level and encourage children to use their minds and imagination instead of being glued to a screen. Have worked in the past as both live-in and full time nanny. Important to work with the parents to provide consistent expectations for the children. Believe that children need boundaries as well as guidance to help them navigate their emotions and be accountable for their actions. Not a fan of the "gentle parenting" trend because have not seen positive results in teaching children how to grow, learn and be productive. Education and discipline needs to start early to get children on the right path. I have worked with all ages from infant to teen as well as with children with special needs. I love working with and caring for children because they allow me to learn new things every day and see the possibilities in everything!

A little bit about me

I'm Brazilian and have been living in the US for four years. I came here as an Au Pair and had an incredible experience with my two host families. In my first year, I worked in Washington, D.C., caring for four children, ages 2, 4, 6, and 9. In my second year, I worked for a family with two children: a newborn and a 4-year-old.

Since my time in Brazil, I've been working as a nanny. In total, I've been caring for children
I worked as a live-in nanny for a family in Bethesda. I cared for two children.Then I worked driving some children to and from school, picking them up after school, as well as helping with homework, preparing meals, and doing laundry.
I have extensive experience with virtually all ages, especially babies, and I'm a great driver in addition to keeping the common areas of the house organized (kitchen, bedroom, playroom).

I feel extremely qualified for any future job. Furthermore, I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish and have my own car.
