A little bit about me

Hi! I am a reliable, fun and experienced nanny who has been providing childcare for 14 years (both paid and volunteer). I have Bachelor's degrees in Human Nutrition and Dietetics, which included coursework in early child development. I am qualified to care for children with food allergies and can follow any dietary preferences a family may have when preparing food. My previous position as a SNAP-ED nutrition educator allowed me to work with children in fun, educational environments. A true playmate to children, kind, responsible and nurturing. I have experience with kids of all ages. I also know intermediate level Spanish and Portuguese. Outside of childcare, I am happy to help with house management duties including laundry, organizing toys and kid's clothes, meal prep, grocery shopping and other things the family may need. I hope to create a warm relationship with the family I work for.
