Booked by 17 families in Glen Cove, NY

Hey my name is Valentina. I’m a professional, reliable nanny with many years of experience caring for ages 7 months old to 16 years old. I’m especially strong with routines and transitions feeding, naps, play, homework, and bedtime so children feel secure and days run smoothly. Families describe me as structured, flexible, and hands-on. I balance warmth and playfulness with clear boundaries and consistency, which works well for both young children and school-aged kids. I help with taking children to appointments and afterschool activities, support homework, meal prep, and light cleaning, and provide occasional date-night babysitting. I keep parents updated regularly, sharing how their child is doing throughout the day. I take care of the details from activities to routines so children feel secure and parents know everything is handled. I also provide reliable pet care and have plenty of experience keeping animals on schedule. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, washing, and administering medication as needed. I have hands-on experience with my own two dogs and a cat, so I understand the attention, routine, and care pets need to stay happy and healthy. I’m also in college attaining my degree in digital marketing. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your children and hope to hear from you soon!

Valentina was wonderful! Great communicator, was on time, text to keep me aware, and my son loved her.
