I’m a nanny because I wanna be a nanny because I love to work with kids and feel that I can contribute for their lives with my knowledge and love.
My past childcare experience In Brazil, I worked in a day care for a year with kids from 3 to 30 months (2009), helping with the daily activities (feeding, changing diapers, preparing meals, giving baths, playing, stimulation of babies and toddlers development) and worked with kids with special needs (Down Syndrome and autism mainly). Also, I am a doula, a breastfeeding counselor. I instructed parents and family about the early childhood massage (Shantala) technique, the benefits, appropriate methods and bath therapy, and provided support to the family about baby care. Since September, 2013, I have worked in USA as an au pair and take care of two girls (they are 2 and 3 years now). One of the girls has Down Syndrome and I'm responsible for: Preparing them for school/therapy; play dates; preparing meals; changing diapers; potty training; sleep routine; planning different activities (inside and outside); going to the pool; overseeing daily therapies sessions - for the child with Down Syndrome (physical, occupational, speech and feeding therapy) including therapy during her daily life activities and providing daily reports to parents on improvement and following the medical appointments.
