More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

In 2025, I cared for a 5-year-old girl, a 1-year-old baby, and a 14-year-old teenager. I helped with meal preparation, homework support, bedtime routines, diaper changes, and keeping the children engaged in safe and fun activities. I learned how to manage different age needs at the same time and remain patient and organized.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy doing arts and crafts, reading storybooks, outdoor walks, educational games, and creative play. With younger children, I like sensory activities and interactive learning. With older kids, I enjoy helping with homework, playing board games, and encouraging responsibility and independence.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is building trust with both the children and their parents. Creating a safe, loving, and structured environment allows children to thrive emotionally and academically.

My experience with special needs children...

Although I do not have formal certification, I am patient, understanding, and willing to follow parents’ instructions carefully. I adapt to each child’s individual needs and always prioritize safety, communication, and emotional support.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny was seeing the 5-year-old child I cared for improve her reading skills in Spanish . Watching her gain confidence and feel proud of herself reminded me how important encouragement and patience are in a child’s development.
