Yamileth 1 review
$35 per hour for 1 child

I am dedicated and compassionate caregiver with a deep love for working with children.Though I don't have children of my own, I speak Spanish and I could teach them. In my free time, I enjoy dance, hike, and swimming. I have a great references of my ex jobs .

Our family cannot say enough good things about Yami. She has been our nanny for the past six years and we hate to see her go! Our youngest is starting full-time preschool this fall so we no longer have a need for a full-time nanny. Yami has helped us raise all of our children since they were newborns. She is the kindest, gentlest, most cheerful nanny you could ask for. She is also extremely reliable, eager to help out around the house and very deferential to what parents want. We hope she can find an amazing next family to work with.
