A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Shanem Bellorin, and I am a dedicated nanny with 3 years of experience specializing in caring for infants, babies, and toddlers. I am currently a full-time student at ASU and work full-time at Starbucks. Safety and well-being are my top priorities, and I believe in fostering their growth through fun and educational activities that match their developmental stage. In addition to English, I am fluent in Spanish, which allows me to offer bilingual care if desired. I also have basic knowledge of sign language, which helps me communicate effectively with children who use basic signs. Understanding the importance of routines, I am skilled in managing schedules and have experience with sleep training methods to promote healthy sleeping habits. I believe in open communication with parents, providing regular updates on your child's day and collaborating on their development goals. Certified in CPR and First Aid, I am prepared to handle any situation with confidence and care.

More About Me

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

One of my memorable experiences was caring for a 6-month-old child, where I introduced basic sign language alongside meal preparation, bath time, and play activities. It was gratifying to see how quickly the child picked up on these signs, especially the sign for "more," which they used to ask for additional food and water. This experience highlighted the effectiveness of early communication skills and reinforced my belief in the power of gentle, supportive guidance in nurturing a child's development.

Patience, empathy, and the ability to handle various situations with professionalism are also essential qualities for a successful nanny.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny was when I saw a baby take their first steps. It was such a joyful and exciting moment, especially because I had been there to support and encourage them along the way. Seeing their face light up with happiness as they achieved this milestone was incredibly rewarding and reminded me of the special bond I had formed with them. Moments like these make being a nanny so fulfilling and memorable.
