A little bit about me

My greatest experience and the one that has given me the most happiness in life is being a mother and my daughter has been my greatest motivation in this wonderful path of being a nanny.
I have more than 10 years of experience working with children. I enjoy and love my work, it makes me happy to be part of the healthy development, good physical and emotional growth of a child, to be a support for parents who are just beginning their path of raising and educating their children with love, patience and dedication. Children are like sponges that observe everything around them, as adults we must be good examples and guides for them, speak kindly to them, be respectful with them, always using the magic words (please and thank you).

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy each and every activity I undertake with the children.
I select activities based on their age and take their nap schedule into account.
I divide the activities into two categories: some take place indoors, while others take place outdoors. Inside the home, I like to establish routines that include reading books,
Speaking to the child—explaining various topics and pointing out interesting details in the book illustrations as we read—helps them develop a broader vocabulary
Using educational toys—such as blocks, puzzles is ideal for helping children develop their problem-solving skills. While engaging with these toys, we also take the opportunity to introduce basic concepts such as colors, numbers, the seasons, and different types of weather.
Visiting museums, farms, parks, and attending music classes at libraries are activities I absolutely love, as they help children learn to socialize, share, and develop their personality and good manners.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of the most important aspects of being a nanny is forming a strong team with the parents—ensuring that we are all on the same page.
Communication and respect are the keys to a successful working relationship.
As a professional with years of experience—and as a mother who has already raised a daughter of her own—I feel fully capable of providing guidance and contributing my expertise to a young family as they embark on the journey of raising and educating their children.
The other part involves:
Loving the child as if he were my own—caring for him, protecting him, educating him, disciplining him with love and understanding, and doing everything possible to make him the happiest child in the world.

My experience with special needs children...

The only special condition I have encountered while working with children involved those with eight or more allergies. Consequently, I studied and obtained my certification in food allergens to provide a higher standard of care, ensuring the child's complete well-being both when preparing their meals and when taking the necessary precautions during activities outside the home. I have worked with two families with children affected by this condition, and—fortunately—I never needed to use an EpiPen or administer anti-allergic medicine.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Every moment is special and important, but as a nanny, there is a wonderful sense of accomplishment when a child responds positively to established routines—for instance, regarding nap and meal schedules etc.
It is impossible to express in just a few words how much enjoyment and fulfillment this work brings me. Every small step of progress is a cause for celebration: when the child holds their own bottle, learns to sit up independently, starts crawling, eats their first solid food, speaks their first words, takes their first steps—and so on. For me, every single moment is unforgettable.
