Hi there! My name is Vitoria, I am 26 years old and I’m from Brazil. I’m looking for a full-time and I’m available for occasional jobs. I’m pet-friendly, non-smoker, strong driver - no accidents and clean record, fully vaccinated, and child/infant CPR certified. I’ve been working with kids for about 8 years (4mo- 12yo), as an au pair, as a nanny and also as a nature mentor at Peninsula Forest and Beach School (located in Moss Beach) with kids aged 2-6yo. In Brazil, I worked as a pre-school teacher (with toddlers) while I was studying to be a technician nurse. I also always took care of my siblings who are currently 10 and 11 years old and that brought me so much love for children. I have a lot of energy and I love engaging with the little ones! I feel full filled making kiddos giggling, so I am always being silly and bringing the best out of them :) I have a 40 hour applied behavior analysis training certification and I worked as a nanny with a kid on the spectrum for two years. I also worked as a nanny/family assistant and house manager for almost 2 years. I want to become a Newborn Care Specialist in the future so I am taking a course with Newborn Care Solutions and I am eager to start this journey since I love babies. Helping families is something I love, helping kids develop and reach their milestones healthy and happy is my motivation. I’m very dedicated, loving and passionate about life. You will find me going on hikes, weight lifting, traveling, singing and reading.
