hi families I'm looking a way to make extra money so I'm interested in occasional jobs. I'm not looking a babysitter position but I'll help with chores around the house, unboxing, light cleaning, go errands, etc ...

We hired Stefania for a short time today and she was able to build rapport quickly with my two boys. She’s also very nice! Would definitely hire again!

I am a caring, reliable, and patient nanny with several years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. I have worked as a private nanny for the past four years, supporting families by creating a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where children can grow and thrive. I truly enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents, and I take pride in being attentive to each child’s individual needs. With a background in caregiving and current studies in nursing, I bring a calm, responsible, and compassionate approach to childcare. My goal is always to support families by providing dependable care, encouragement, and positive guidance while treating every child as if they were my own.
