A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Raquel, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from babies to teenagers. I love creating fun, educational, and safe environments where kids can explore, learn, and just be themselves. I’m organized, reliable, and enjoy making everyday moments special—whether it’s reading a story, doing crafts, helping with homework, or laughing together during playtime.

I also like to keep things light and fun! Kids often say I have a “superpower” for turning ordinary afternoons into little adventures. When I’m not with the little ones, I enjoy cooking, learning new things, and sometimes seeing how high I can stack a block tower before it falls!

If you’re looking for someone caring, experienced, and a little playful in all the right ways, I’d love to meet your family!

More About Me

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

working for families in Scarsdale and Greenwich, where I cared for children ranging from babies to school-aged kids and even teenagers. During this time, I was responsible for daily routines, educational activities, transportation, meal preparation, and creating a safe and fun environment. I also have experience managing household tasks alongside childcare, which helped me keep everything organized and running smoothly.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

…include reading stories, doing arts and crafts, baking and cooking together, playing outdoors, exploring parks, museums, and nature trails, helping with homework, building block towers, playing board games and card games, doing puzzles, dancing, singing, acting out plays, playing dress-up, having treasure hunts, doing simple science experiments, gardening, painting, drawing, playing sports, riding bikes, swimming, learning new skills, and even organizing fun themed days—all while making sure learning and fun go hand in hand.

The most important part about being a nanny...

is building a relationship based on trust, love, and respect with both the children and the family. Being a nanny is not just about keeping children safe, but also about guiding them, supporting their emotional growth, encouraging their independence, and helping them feel confident and loved every day. Knowing that I can positively impact a child’s life, even through small daily moments, is what makes this job so meaningful to me.

My experience with special needs children...

includes working with children with autism, where I provided attentive, patient, and personalized care, supporting their routines, communication, and learning through structured activities, play, and positive reinforcement to create a safe and nurturing environment.

The most important part about being a nanny...

is when I get to see the children I care for truly happy and engaged in what we’re doing together. It could be the excitement on their faces while we’re baking cookies, the pride they feel after finishing an art project, the laughter during a game outdoors, or the curiosity they show when we explore nature or try a simple science experiment. I especially love those quiet moments, like reading a story together or helping with homework, when I can see their confidence and personalities grow. For me, the best part of being a nanny is witnessing these everyday moments of joy, learning, and connection—knowing that I am helping shape their childhood in a positive and meaningful way.
