Oriannie $26 per hour for 1 child

Hello ✨my name is Oriannie. I am currently seeking a position as a nanny, a role I truly carry out with love, patience, and dedication. I genuinely enjoy caring for children, supporting their development, and creating a safe, happy, and nurturing environment for them and their families. I am a responsible, caring, and trustworthy person with experience providing quality childcare. I am currently available and very interested in a full-time position. I have attached my resume and would be happy to connect with any family looking for someone they can truly trust. I am a registered nurse, and my credentials have been officially recognized (validated) in the United States; therefore, I do not need a separate CPR certification. I would be happy to provide copies of my academic transcripts and other documentation. Yes, I drive to work. I take full responsibility for the baby's care; my duties include preparing meals and handling everything related to the baby, such as light housekeeping and facilitating routines that support their development. I can provide references from families I have worked with previously. Spanish is my native language, though this has never been an obstacle to my work. I hold a valid work permit for the United States ✨✨💗

Isabella $19 per hour for 1 child

Hii my names Isabella ! I’m a 20 year old currently studying Biology with a focus on Genetics. I’m in my final year and excited to be just one year away from earning my bachelor’s degree. I’ve always been passionate about science and the way it helps us understand life on a deeper level, especially in the field of genetics. I’ve also always had a natural connection with kids I love spending time with them, learning from their curiosity, and helping them grow. Growing up, my family worked in household roles like housekeeping and house management, and they often took me along. So from a young age, I got to see what it means to be responsible, organized, and attentive to others’ needs. That experience really shaped the way I carry myself today. Outside of school and work, I love being outdoors, trying new foods, and finding little adventures around the city. Whether it’s going to a street market, spending time with family, or just relaxing with a good movie, I like to stay balanced and appreciate the small things in life.

I am a patient, mindful and creative person who loves to be active and outdoors with children of all ages and foster a safe, loving and engaging environment. I am CPR/First Aid certified and have references available. *** haven’t been able to change my availability but available for date nights :) **** Friday & Saturday nights :) *** also available during the day for the next month!! M (anytime) T (afternoon/evening) W (anytime) F (afternoon/evening)

Maura was amazing today with our 10 month old baby! He is going through stranger anxiety, separation anxiety, teething, AND wasn't feeling the best today, and despite all of that, he really enjoyed spending time with Maura and felt comfortable almost immediately. That almost never happens! Maura was so sweet with him, kept him engaged and happy, and even loaded/unloaded our dishwasher & straightened up during his nap and before leaving for the day. He had a really fun day! We are very excited to have Maura back as our regular part-time nanny and sitter!
