Experience: 10 yrs
I started working with kids when I started babysitting when I was 17, right around the time of my first daughter's birth. Over the years--and since coming to this country--I have continued caring for children for more than 26 years. I f I came from Argentina 26 years ago. I speak English, Portuguese, and-of course-my native language, Spanish. Children and animals are my top priority in this world; I love the feeling of being part of a family. I often form such strong bonds with the children that it is hard to part ways, yet I have maintained connections with many of them over the years. I have worked in government-run daycares and with children with special needs, and I have completed courses in New York and New Jersey on childcare and autism. Above all, however, I have years of experience and can provide references
Laura cared for my baby, and I had a really positive experience with her. She is kind, reliable, and very attentive. She was always patient and made me feel comfortable knowing my child was in good hands. She communicated well and was easy to work with, and I never had any issues. I’m only ending our time with her because my baby is starting daycare so I can work from home. She also helped keep my home tidy without ever being asked, which was a huge help. She would clean up after the baby, keep things organized, and make sure the space stayed neat. I really appreciated her initiative and the extra support. I would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and caring nanny.
