I am CPR and First Aid certified for infants, children and adults. I am a full time preschool teacher during the week. I have been working with children in one capacity or another for over 20 years. I have taught in preschool and Sunday school settings, babysat, and run the childcare for a number of non-profit events and organizations. I have experience working with newborn babies through preteens. I love working with children of all ages, watching them grow and being a part of those 'a-ha!' moments. Every age offers something new and unique. I love helping the younger ones grow, learn new skills and explore this amazing world that we live in. With older children it is so much fun to play games, make believe, and help them as they explore and learn about the more intricate things in life. I look forward to speaking with you about your needs soon!

Seeking for a loving, experienced and reliable nanny?! My name is Johanna, I am 27 years old and I am looking for a babysitting/nanny position, preferably full time. I am a former au pair (More than 2.5 years in the program) and I have 9+ years of experience caring for children from newborn to 17 years old. I am warm, loving, creative, energetic and highly dependable caregiver dedicated to helping to shape children into confident and happy people who will carry those traits on into adulthood. • Bilingual (Spanish (native) and English). • Creates a fun, safe and stimulating environment that helps children meet developmental milestones. • Uses creative methods and has experience in helping/assisting children with their homework, school projects, reading assignments, and studying after school. • Can help with cooking/meal prep (ensuring adherence to strict allergen guidelines) and light cleaning.

“I can’t say enough great things about Lady! She has taken care of our 18 month old since he was about 6 months and he loves her! The first time she took care of our son, she listened carefully and did everything that I asked her perfectly. She asked me all the right questions too! She is SUPER reliable and punctual which I really appreciate. She reads to him, plays with him, and has a caring and nurturing personality about her that makes me feel at ease. I know he’ll always be cared for well when she’s here :)”
