About Bertha

Experience: 15 yrs

Fostering a child's growth and development is my true passion, a journey I have been dedicated to for the past 15 years. With experience in special needs schools, childcare facilities, and one on one therapeutic sessions after I graduted fron psychology back in Colombia. My approach is rooted in patience, creativity alongside with my experience as a visual and plastic artist. I am a calm demeanor, ensuring a nurturing environment for children aged 0 to 11. I hold a graduate degree with specialized coursework in Early Child Development, which informs how I support your little ones. Whether we are solving puzzles, playing board games, or engaging in creative crafts, I love making learning fun. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide attentive swimming supervision during water play. I'll follow your preferred method to share updates about your child's day. I am happy to follow your lead on household rules. I look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's dynamic.

Bertha was an absolutely wonderful addition to our family. She cared for our son like her own. She loved him, played with him, and cared for him better than I could have asked of a nanny. I would absolutely recommend her for any family. She was timely, patient, friendly, and clean. She put my son’s needs above all and then during nap times, was helpful around the house, maintaining a clean playroom, doing laundry, and cleaning up after meals.
