About Brenda
Experience: 10 yrs
I have been babysitting/nannying for about 14 years now and love everything about it. I am bilingual. I have my B. A in Spanish, Theater, minor in dance and education at the secondary level. I started my own dance business last year and it has picked up, so I am no longer as available as before, but want to continue helping with kids and families for as long as I can. It fills my spirit.

I have tears in my eyes writing this! Brenda has been our nanny - and part of our family - for the past 4 years. She's been a blessing to us. She started with us in 2017 when our 5.5 yo was just shy of 2 and beginning preschool. In the past 4 years she has taken on the care of two more kiddos, handling the newborn stage and all three little ones with ease. Brenda is incredibly engaging, patient, outgoing, active, and has given our kids SO many wonderful experiences. They respect her and adore her. They honestly want her to come every day. We've always had wonderful, open communication and have really grown together through the evolving needs of our family. Which brings us to today. We fully support Brenda taking more time to pursue her choreography career - a passion we've had the privilege to experience through her work with local high schools and community theater - but we do still need 25-30 hrs/week in childcare. The next family who hires her will hit the jackpot.
