🌿 Professional Nanny & Family Assistant Hi! I’m Angie, a caring, patient, and highly reliable nanny with over 7 years of experience, including 2 full years as an Au Pair and Family Assistant in the U.S. During my Au Pair program, I worked closely with my host family not only caring for the children but also supporting the household as a family assistant. I helped plan and maintain daily routines (meals, naps, school schedules, activities, homework, and bedtime), organized educational and recreational activities, supported bilingual learning (Spanish/English), and assisted with light household tasks to keep the home running smoothly. I have experience with children of all ages, from newborns and infants to toddlers, school-age children, and teens, and I’m very comfortable caring for multiple children at once. Safety is always a priority — I’m CPR & First Aid certified, attentive, and calm in any situation. Families describe me as trustworthy, loving, patient, and very organized. I focus on creating a warm, positive, and structured environment where children feel safe, happy, and confident. My approach is gentle and respectful, with an emphasis on positive discipline, emotional regulation, and age-appropriate independence. I love encouraging learning through play and creativity, including reading stories, arts and crafts, painting, music and movement, outdoor adventures, sensory play, and Montessori-inspired activities. I also enjoy teaching Spanish naturally through games and daily conversations. I’m fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, a strong and safe driver with a clean record, a confident swimmer, and very comfortable with pets. I hold a U.S. Green Card, allowing full authorization to work and travel in the U.S. I’m available for full-time starting in August and have a very flexible schedule, including evenings, weekends, date nights, occasional overnight care, and travel if needed. I have excellent recent references and truly value building long-term, trusting relationships with families. If you’re looking for someone reliable, organized, and genuinely passionate about helping children grow and enjoy their days, I’d love to meet your family 💛
