More About Me

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

I have extensive experience working with children both as a music teacher in Argentina and as an au pair. As a music teacher, I worked with children of all ages, helping them develop creativity, coordination, and social skills through fun and educational musical activities. As an au pair, I cared for three children aged 2, 4, and 5 for two years, managing daily routines, preparing meals, organizing educational and recreational activities, and ensuring a safe and supportive environment. I have also cared for children with special needs, which strengthened my ability to provide personalized attention and encouragement. My goal is always to help children feel happy, confident, and supported while fostering their learning and creativity.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy a variety of activities with children. I love spending time playing outdoors, which allows kids to be active and explore. I also enjoy creating arts and crafts activities, helping children express their creativity. For example, this year we made Halloween decorations together, and it was definitely one of the most fun activities we did. I love seeing their excitement and creativity while participating in these projects.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I believe the most important part of being a nanny is creating a comfortable and trusting environment for both the parents and the children. Good communication and mutual respect are essential so that parents feel confident in my care and children can grow in a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment. My goal is always to ensure that children feel happy and secure while fostering their development.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moments as a nanny are when children learn something new that I have taught them. It’s such a special feeling to see them understand and grow. I feel so proud watching them develop new skills, gain confidence, and explore the world around them. These moments make all the effort and care worthwhile.
