Hi families! My name is Juliana, and I’m a warm, patient, and creative nanny based in Greenbelt, Maryland. I have over 3 years of experience caring for children of different ages—from curious infants to energetic preschoolers—and I’m deeply passionate about helping little ones grow, learn, and feel loved every single day. My background combines the best of two worlds: I’ve worked as both a nanny and early childhood teacher, which has given me a strong understanding of child development and the importance of emotional connection. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, respected, and encouraged to explore their world. I’m certified in CPR and First Aid, have a driver’s license, and speak fluent Spanish and basic English. I’m currently studying English every Saturday to continue improving. Language has never been a limitation for me — I’ve successfully worked with English-speaking families and always find effective, loving ways to communicate. Parents often tell me that my patience, kindness, and natural intuition make me someone they can completely trust. My days with children are filled with learning through play. I love reading stories, singing songs, creating arts and crafts, exploring nature, and planning sensory activities that awaken curiosity and imagination. Indoors or outdoors, I make sure every activity supports the child’s growth—socially, emotionally, and cognitively. I also encourage independence through small tasks that build confidence, such as helping clean up toys or choose their clothes. Families describe me as responsible, reliable, loving, and calm even in busy situations. I always show up with a smile, ready to adapt and support each family’s unique rhythm. I understand the trust it takes to invite someone into your home, and I take that responsibility to heart. My goal is to create a space where both parents and children feel supported, understood, and truly cared for. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, organizing children’s areas, preparing simple meals, or tidying up after playtime. I love to maintain a clean, positive, and peaceful environment. If you’re looking for a nanny who will love, protect, and nurture your child as if they were my own, who brings warmth, creativity, and structure to your home, I would be honored to meet your family. Thank you for taking the time to read about me — I look forward to connecting with you soon! Warmly, Juliana
