Hello! My name is Raquel. I have experience working for families with three and one child, between seven months and four years. I love working with kids and I am very patient and sweet with them. I enjoy playing and performing indoor and outdoor activities. I am a Spanish speaker, so that I can teach them. I also have experience working with Seniors with Dementia, and I consider myself a loving caregiver. I have experience preparing light meals, feeding them, doing outdoor activities such as walking around the park and neighborhood, and administering medication according to the doctor's prescription. I enjoy nature (parks and rivers), and I like to listen to music and dance. I am a respectful and trustworthy person.
“Raquel was fantastic with my two toddlers! She was on time, engaged, energetic, and cleaned up after kiddos activities. I would not hesitate recommending Raquel to other parents!”
Hi - My name is Kara! I’m 29 years old and I've been working with kids since I was 16 and absolutely love it. I’ve been in a nanny-share since 2021 and just recently said goodbye to my little ones who started preschool. I took care of them since they were three months old and now they are two and half years old. I’m now in a new nanny-share and taking care of a four month old and a five month old. I love being a nanny but recently have missed the babysitting experience. I love coloring, puzzles, playing pretend, and watching Disney movies with the kiddos. * at this time I’m currently not taking on any new families.
“She was extremely communicative and very sweet, highly recommend!”
