A little bit about me

I am a compassionate and experienced nanny with over 20 years of caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I love working with children and take pride in helping them grow in a safe, loving, and supportive environment. I enjoy creating fun and educational activities, helping with homework, preparing healthy meals, and maintaining a clean and organized space. I am also happy to help with light housekeeping related to the children.

I am certified in CPR and AED through the American Heart Association, and I always prioritize safety and well-being. My experience has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and dependable. I build strong, trusting relationships with children and their families and aim to be a positive part of their daily routine.

I speak only Spanish but am actively learning English to better communicate with parents and children. I’m committed to providing excellent care and making a positive impact in every family I work with.

A little bit about me

I’ve worked with kids for over 10 years in a variety of settings - from summer camp to nannying & teaching preschool. I have a degree in child psychology, training in CPR & first aid, & do my best to stay on top of new techniques, approaches, & concerns for modern-day parents. I have experience working with kids who are neurodivergent (especially those with autism or ADHD) & those who are queer (or questioning their identities); I am able to empathize with the unique joys & challenges your kids may be facing in their day-to-day lives.

I'm here for both you & your child -- whether it's helping out around the house or with homework, working through communication breakdowns or difficulties at school, or teaching independence & age-appropriate decision making. I want to be an asset to your family in as many ways as possible. I’m ready to help your kids (& you, parents!) to navigate developmental milestones, & have some fun along the way.

Just arrived from Florida after completing my education 4years abroad, Entiendo de poco Español, I grew up in Edmonds, WA.

I was a nanny for 4yr old boy 1yr old boy, when I was 16 years til 23, very rewarding still close to the Mom and now adolescent boys. I’m 10/10 educated with every age til 18 except newborns, I have experience but still learning.

My mom is a full time teacher @Brier, Wa. and Expert on kids with special needs, a true miracle worker I got to work close behind her for 10+ years.

I have a valid driver license, extremely experienced driver. I don’t have my own kid friendly car yet, but am thriving and working hard to get one, to be of extra assistance.

Cooking is a hobby and skill, so meal prep and snack time will not be forgotten. I’m okay to play games/arts and crafts with your little one, while maintaining the house hold.

I’ve been first aid and CPR certified since first class at Edmonds Stevens Hospital.
