About Fernanda
Experience: 3 yrs
Hi! My name is Fernanda. I was an au pair for two years, and after finishing the program, I continued working for the same family. I currently care for an 8-year-old girl with special needs and her 12-year-old brother. Over this time I've learned so much from them, especially about patience, creativity, and communication. Before that, I volunteered for six months at a children's hospital in Brazil, where I supported and played with kids to make their days a little brighter, which helped me develop a natural sense of responsibility and empathy. I've also cared for my younger cousins (ages 3-8 at the time). I'm available on weekdays (except wednesday afternoons and thursday nights) from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 10:30pm, and I'm very flexible on weekends! I'm a very loving, creative, and reliable person who truly enjoys being around children. I would be thrilled to bring that same care and energy to your family!
Most recent review
Fernanda was absolutely amazing with our kids! From the moment she arrived, she was warm, friendly, and instantly connected with both our son and daughter. She engaged them with fun activities, kept them happy and entertained, and handled everything so calmly and confidently. What stood out most was how caring and nurturing she was — especially with our daughter, who woke up in the middle of the night. Fernanda comforted her so gently and made sure she felt safe and relaxed. It really showed how patient and compassionate she is. Both kids adored her and were talking about how much fun they had even the next day. As parents, we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would definitely love to have Fernanda babysit for us again and highly recommend her to any family looking for a kind, reliable, and caring babysitter.
