Hi parents! I've been around children for 7 years. I first started helping my neighbor with her month old son while she needed to run errands for a couple of hours when I was a teenager. And a couple of years later, I started attending to a voluntary job during the weekends at a charity place taking care of the children in a space just for them playing games, reading stories and singing while their parents were being assisted. Months later I turned 19 years old, I came to the U. S. to experience an interexchange for two years taking care of kids of different ages and different families. I had had such a great time getting to know more about kids from a different culture, learning more about how they express themselves through playing and guiding them with their needs. And after that I had a great year with references that I'll be more than welcome to share.

Ana helped us with backup childcare for 2 weeks when my 1-year old son's daycare was closed for vacation. She was amazing! She is clearly experienced and asked insightful questions to get acclimated right away. Ana is warm and professional and clearly loves kids. She has a great low-key demeanor but is fun and active too. It turned out my older 4-year old son stayed home with a cold a few of those days, and she was really flexible and understanding. She handled both kids no problem. The 1-year old is very busy and active, and she somehow kept him entertained and happy the whole time. I also appreciated her efforts to clean up after the kids whenever possible, so we didn't have a huge mess at the end of the day- this is not always a given with other sitters/nannies. We plan to keep her on standby for additional help and babysitting whenever we can get her. I recommend her wholeheartedly!
