A little bit about me

I am a well educated, and qualified preschool and primary school teacher with experience as a teacher, Private Tutor and nanny in Spain and Canada.

I have been teaching English as a second Language at language schools, at schools and for private families since 2018. Teaching students from 2 to 14 years old. I have also been working as a nanny since that year. I started working part time in Spain and last year I moved to Canada to work full time as an au pair. I have experience taking care of kids from 10 months old to 12 years old.

Working with kids has always been my vocation and I love what I do. I find the relationships I build when spending time with children really fulfilling. I enjoy helping my students and kids, I take care of, to grow and become good-hearted children. The best feeling ever is when a kid under my supervision achieves a goal or overcomes a challenge, that makes feel full of pride and then I realize that I made the right decision when it comes to my career.

More About Me

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

I have been an English teacher ever since I finished my college degree in 2021.
Since 2018 I've been working as a nanny and after a couple of years I started to work as a private tutor as well so the kids I was taking care of could improve their English level.
Last match I moved to Calgary, Canada to work as an aupair and I plan on doing that until my visa finishes next February.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love going to places outdoors such as park, library, museum, zoo, biking...
When we spend time at home I like to play board games, do some crafts, build Legos, make puzzles.
Every kid is different so I like to listen to them to understand what they like and what they need.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Building a relationship with the kids in a way that they feel safe around you but also they need to respect you so there have to be some rules that will make it easier.

My experience with special needs children...

During the summers of 2018 and 2019 I worked for a month each year in a summer camp adapted to kids and adults with special needs. I would entertain them, play with them, feed them, clean them...
In addition to that in my family we have an autistic kid so I've always been aware of what it was and what he needed from me.
I also have a lot of experience with ADHD since most of the kids I've worked with have been dealing with this.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of the sweetest moments was when after I took a week off during summer, when I came back home and met the kids, a 3 year old girl looked at me with her eyes full of tears, hugged me and ask me to not leave again.

That is one specific moment but I have so many good memories with kids, specially when they achieve something new that makes me feel full of pride because of what they are becoming.

Hi! My name is Anna Trieloff and I would love to be your summer 2024 nanny before I head back to grad school. I have nannied for as long as I can remember and have absolutely loved every second of it. It is ultimately what led me to get a degree in Psychology and Human Development and Family Studies and want to go back to school for my social work masters. This past summer I worked as a Registered Behavior Technician at an ABA therapy center for children with autism and it allowed me to grow so much as a caregiver. I would love to help out a family with their children, but also can help with groceries, cleaning, cooking, and any other housework.
