Caring Nanny

Avg response < 17 hrs

I am a very loving, and energetic nanny. I have been in this field for 12 years. I really enjoy being a nanny. I have experience caring for triplets and twins. I also have helped families with sleep training their children. There is a joy that comes with this job when caring for young children, knowing that I am a part of their developmental growth also motivating them and building their self-esteem is very self rewarding. I have cared for all ages from newborns to 12 years old. The biggest challenge as a nanny is to adapt to different people and their needs & requirements, so a long-term position would be what I am looking for. I have the ability to multitask and organize if that is what you need, I also love to cook and know many of my own recipes and am willing to learn new ones. I enjoy taking the children to their activities and organizing new activities and play dates, and I love arts and crafts.

Caring & Loving Nanny

Avg response < 8 hrs

Hi my name is Alondra , I have 12 plus years of experience with infants and toddlers. I love children and find nothing more rewarding then caring for them. I love doing activities with them like reading and taking them to local parks and other fun places. The children that I cared after in my last place of employment have started daycare and my employment has come to an end, which is why I'm looking for a similar post. You may check my references in order to support my claims of diligence and responsibility. I would welcome the opportunity to meet you and your family.

I had to find a caregiver for my sick 10 month old at the last minute. (He is normally in daycare.) I got so lucky to find Alondra! She immediately went down on the ground to read with E. when she arrived and quickly gained his trust. She was responsive to our questions about him throughout the day. She managed to get him outside on the first day when he was feeling a bit better which was a positive for us. On the second day when I had to rush home to pick him up for his pediatrician's visit, she got him ready for me, diaper bag and all, and ended up accompanying me which was very helpful. She has a nice personality and good attitude. I will not hesitate to ask her again to watch E.!

Carmen was wonderful. We needed her for 2 days and the girls loved her, she took care of everything: food, strolls outside, naps, diapers, changing clothes, reading books and playing with them. Carmen arrived at our place perfectly in time and also left the baby area tidy and clean before leaving, which is a plus when you have 10 months old triplets. Very dependable, we'll call her again in the future in case of need.
