Taynara $30 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Littleton, CO

I am a dedicated childcare provider with experience and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Brazil, which helps me understand child development, emotions, and behaviors in a deeper and more supportive way. I also completed an Au Pair program, which gave me hands-on experience caring for children of different ages while living with a host family and supporting their daily routines. I currently live in Denver, CO, and work as a nanny for an 11-year-old, assisting with her daily routine, walks, swimming classes, music lessons, and playdates. I have an active lifestyle, and I am responsible, patient, loving, and committed to creating a safe, fun, and structured environment for children. I am punctual, organized, and able to adjust routines according to the family’s needs. I also have experience with younger children, including preparing meals, light household tasks related to the child, homework help, and creating engaging and educational activities throughout the day. I’m looking for a family who values communication, trust, and kindness. I’m available to start immediately and provide excellent care with attention, warmth, and professionalism.
