Booked by 1 family in Crystal, MN

Hi, I’m Giulia. I’m 23 years old and I’m from Italy. I’ve been working as a nanny for over a year and have experience with newborns, toddlers, and preschoolers. I also worked in summer camps (6-12yo kids). I’m a very sociable and friendly person who enjoys working with children. I am a caring, energetic and dependable nanny who loves spending time with children. I enjoy helping them learn new things, be creative, and have fun while making sure they feel safe and supported. I don’t have any problem with pets (I have a dog and two cats!)

“Giulia was punctual, kind, and easy to work with! Our son had a lot of fun with her. We’d be happy to have her babysit again! ”

Charlotte $18 per hour for 1 child

I've been a childcare provider for over seven years, motivated by my passion for fostering children's growth and development and my positive experiences in previous babysitting roles. I believe in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for children to learn, play, and grow. As a patient, calm, creative, and friendly caregiver, I enjoy playing various games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that enhance their learning. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to preteens. I'm comfortable caring for up to four children simultaneously and am available to provide references upon request. I hold CPR and First Aid certifications, and I follow the parents' preferred communication method to keep them informed about their child's day or any issues that may arise. I look forward to the opportunity of meeting you and learning more about your childcare needs.
