Daniela $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Daniela and I am a professional, high-energy nanny with 3 years of paid experience caring for children of all ages. While I enjoy working with all stages of childhood, I have a special heart for toddlers. I love their curiosity and find great joy in creating fun, educational activities that help them reach their milestones. As a native Spanish speaker, I take pride in introducing children to a second language through songs and play-most of my previous kiddos were counting in Spanish within weeks! My goal is to provide parents with total peace of mind, knowing their little ones are in a safe, patient, and nurturing environment. I am highly organized, pet-friendly, a non-smoker. I look forward to meeting your family!
