My goal as a nanny is to take care of children, help them grown and watch them have fun!. I described my personality as outgoing, patience, responsible, warmth and creativity. I love going to the park with the kids, making crafts and i am very loving. I want to make a difference in the care of the children, so that as they grow up they remember a childhood full of fun and happiness; at the same time keeping the family calm.
