I also taught English in Thailand and worked with university women in Cambodia. I look forward to getting to know your family! Currently based in New York, NY (video is outdated!)
“Tanya is wonderful! She put my 2 year old daughter at ease right away. Highly recommend!”
Hello! My name is Aoife (pronounced ee-fah). My day job is as a public defender, and I’m interested in occasional caregiving jobs. My paid experience working with children began at around age fourteen as a mother’s helper, but as the oldest of four children I’ve been helping with child care even a few years before that. I have 7 years of experience babysitting children ages 1 to 12 years and 3 years as a private tutor and a mentor to high school students. I’m responsible, fun, and passionate about theater and the arts.
“Excellent and highly recommended. Handled our 3 children with ease and great care.”
I am a 31 year old nanny originally from Colombia and I have over 8 years of experience caring for children. I have lived in the United States for the past 7 years, working as a nanny and improving my English. Taking care of kids is more than a job to me it is a true passion. I focus on creating a safe, loving, and fun environment and bring patience, creativity, kindness, and positive energy into every home. With parents permission, I like to share my culture and teaching basic Spanish to children. I have experience with children from newborns to 13 years old and have worked in both solo and nanny share positions. CPR certified and currently doing a postpartum doula course. Experience Highlights: • Aug 2021 – Apr 2023: Full-time nanny (newborn) • Apr 2023 – Jun 2024: Full-time nanny share ( 6 and 7 months old) • Jul 2024 – Apr 2025: Full-time nanny share ( 6 months old) • Jun 2025 – February 2026: Full-time nanny for twins ( 8 months old) • Apr 2026 – August 2026: Full-time nanny for a 3-year-old
