Experience: 10 yrs
I'm a bilingual (Spanish/ English )nanny from Uruguay with 10 years of experience caring for children from newborn to age 4 including those with special needs. My approach is warm, patient, and creative, encouraging learning through play, reading, and activities often weaving in Spanish song and conversation. Comfortable with light housekeeping, meal, prep and I value building trust and becoming part of the family. My most recent role took me to Minneapolis where I relocated with a family as their live-in nanny, providing consistent care and household support. Before becoming a full time nanny, I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant in WA state caring for people with dementia. That experience strengthened my compassion, patience and ability to adapt to unique needs skills I now bring to childcare every day. I'm seeking a long term role where I combine my caregiving experience, reliability and heart to help children thrive.
Elvi has been with our family for the past two years, joining us when my daughter was only 7 months old. From day one, she has been loving, patient, dependable, and incredibly trustworthy. Six months ago, we welcomed our son, and Elvi seamlessly transitioned into caring for both children full time with warmth, skill, and an unwavering dedication that is rare to find. She has a natural instinct for understanding children’s needs, whether it’s soothing a fussy baby, channeling toddler energy into creative play, or encouraging developmental milestones through reading, music, and learning activities. When our family relocated to a new state, Elvi didn’t hesitate, she packed up and moved with us, becoming our live-in nanny for the past 5 months. This alone speaks volumes about her commitment and flexibility. Sadly, my husband’s career now requires another unexpected move, and due to space constraints, we must part ways sooner than we ever wanted. This is purely circumstantial—we would keep her with us for many more years if possible. Elvi has been more than a caregiver; she has been a steady presence and a trusted partner in parenting. As a new mom, I have leaned on her for advice, reassurance, and insight into early childhood development. My husband is in the public spotlight, and she has been nothing but professional, respectful, and discreet. Most importantly, she truly loves our children, and they adore her in return. My daughter’s deep, joyful bond with Elvi is proof of the care, attention, and affection she receives. Elvi doesn’t just watch children—she nurtures them, encourages them, and celebrates their growth. She is honest, reliable, compassionate, and will be a blessing to any household. We are incredibly grateful for her time with us and cannot recommend her highly enough.
