I have professional experience caring for babies and young children, with 5+ years of childcare experience, including nannying and family support. I’m comfortable with daily routines, meals, play, naps, school drop-offs and pickups, and creating a safe, warm, and engaging environment for children. I also have experience helping families with light housekeeping and home organization, as well as pet care. I’m reliable, caring, organized, and attentive to the needs of both children and the household. Thank you, Bruna
“Very detail oriented and caring. Will definitely work together again.”
I came to the United States from Ukraine two and a half years ago to help my brother care for his children. At that time, the older girl was five years old and the younger had just been born. I cared for them full-time until recently, when the younger one began kindergarten. Through this experience, I discovered how much I enjoy working with children and how rewarding caregiving can be. My professional background is in healthcare — I am trained as a nurse — which has given me a strong foundation in responsibility, patience, and attentiveness to others’ needs. In addition, I have completed CPR and First Aid training here in the U.S., so families can feel confident that their children are in safe hands. Now that my niece is in school, I am looking for a new opportunity where I can bring my skills, experience, and genuine love of caregiving to support other families. I am dedicated, nurturing, and trustworthy, and I treat every child as if they were my own.
“Tania is an excellent baby very kind and professional, I highly recommend her, she’s our favorite babysitter ”
Hi my name is Breanna, I am looking for a nanny share position. I currently have a almost 2 year old and am looking to bring her along with me. She’s very easy going and independent and loves going on walks along with other activities! I have been working with children for several years; caring for a newborn and triplets were two of my first babysitting jobs. Along with having worked with kids of all ages and having three younger siblings, I am CPR and first aid certified. I love children and love being a mother and am excited to find the right family for us!
