Hi! I have over 2 years of experience working with children as an au pair, where I cared for children ages 3–11 while working with two different families. I also have 2.5 years of experience as a nanny and Spanish tutor. I currently work as an Environmental, Health & Safety Specialist, which has strengthened my knowledge of safety, emergency preparedness, and creating safe environments. I truly enjoy working with children and would be happy to provide your little ones with a safe, fun, and caring environment!
Hello everyone! Child care experience: My name is Camila and I’m 21 years old. I am very much of a people person. I’m observant, detail oriented, open minded and observant. I have had experience with kindergartens. My mom has been teaching Elementary school for the past 10 years. I have come to her school to volunteer on my days off from work. This has been for a total of 3 years of volunteering. I enjoy helping out the kids and love seeing their growth throughout kindergarten. Pet care experience: I had a dog of my own for 14 years, he was a Lhasa Apso. I also did a dog walking job back in high school. I did this for a total of 2 years. After the 30 minute walk, I would feed the dog and make sure he had water and played with him for a little. I can do big dogs and little dogs! Senior care experience: I have worked for a agency called Homewatch Caregivers of Bethesda. I am an In-home Caregiver. I provide support , help run errands, do chores around the house. I have been doing this for 7 months now. I enjoy it because I love helping others out and I’m a people person!!
First of all I have worked as nursing aid for more than 3years. I am a mum of two wonderful boys who love kids. Since last year I am an enfant teacher in a childcare center. I am funny and good at following schedule for kids well-being. I am passionate of taking care of lovely and innocent children. I love them and make sure they don’t need anything ❤️❤️
I’m a caring, dependable caregiver who brings a little fun into every day! I’ve worked with kids, seniors, and pets, helping with everything from homework and bedtime routines to companionship and daily support. I love creating a safe, positive environment where everyone feels comfortable, valued, and even gets to smile a little more. Whether it’s keeping kids engaged, making sure seniors feel respected and cared for, or giving pets the attention they deserve, I’m all in. I also help keep the home running smoothly with light cleaning, organizing, and meal prep. With patience, empathy, and great time management, I make sure everything gets done while keeping the vibe warm and upbeat.
I've been working with children since I was 16, I'm 19 years old. At 16 I did small babysitting jobs and after school was a regular nanny to 2 kids, (3 and 4). I worked at a local daycare when I was 17 to 18. I helped looked after 11-16 children daily from the ages of newborns to 9 year olds. Now I'm an assistant teacher at a learning center/daycare, I take care of infants(newborn to 1 year olds) to 4 year olds. Usually assist take care of 16-23 two year olds, 6-13 three year olds and 9-15 four year olds daily. Children love me and I love them! I'm patient, love interacting and playing with children. I'm a clean person (will do light cleaning), I can food prep, make bottles, change diapers, assist with feeding etc. Can help with small learning skills, managing behavior and potty training. Good with nighttime routines and can read bedtime stories. I also have CPR, first aid and AED certifications.
