A little bit about me

I am an affectionate and nurturing nanny with up to 8 years of experience caring for kids: 1 month to 4 years old. I have 2 kids of my own, one attending university and another attending high school. I am immensely skilled in taking care of children and newborns, with the knowledge of safety precautions and procedures, meal preparation, feeding, potty training methods, and fun educational activities to grow their fine, and gross motor skills. My favorite activities to do with children is read books, teach them letters, shapes, colors, and sounds. I love taking children on walks and strive to go everyday. I handle changing diapers, bath time, nap time, and other various activities.

I hold certifications of Early Childhood Care and Development (90 clock hour training), Infant and Toddler Methods and Materials (45 clock hour training) First Aid, and CPR. I am flexible, understanding and willing to provide reliable assistance for anyone welcoming a full time nanny into their beloved home.

"Manik was working for me taking care of my 3 month old and my 4 year old since 2019 till 2023. She is so very caring and very concerned of how she takes care of both my kids appropriate to their age. She makes sure she fed them, gave bath and did everything to support me to take care of my kids. Since they reached the age if school and preschool I had to discontinue her help. Would recommend her for anyone who wants a better person to care for their children with care and love and with all details in caring them."

More About Me

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

I’ve been a nanny for countless different families. I’ve been a nanny to my own family and friends since I was 23. I’ve made breakfast and lunch to the children and did the laundry. I would play with them and teach educational practices. I’ve been raising my own kids for twenty years now.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy going on walks daily, going to the playground, sing songs, watch Ms. Rachel on youtube, learn letters, sounds, shapes, and colors.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Keeping the children safe, while allowing them to explore and learn from their surroundings. And watching the children grow their own personalities.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was when a toddler had accidentally hit me and when I said “oww” he quickly ran to the timeout corner. I told him to come back and he gave me a hug and a kiss on the spot he hit. I thought this was very cute and I still think about it.
