Hello, Parents! I'm a caring nanny with a passion for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. Specializing in newborns and infants, I have experience as a teacher assistant and daycare worker. My Red Cross volunteer work ensures I'm well-versed in CPR and first aid. Additionally, I hold an engineering background and actively update my knowledge in math, algebra, physics, calculus, and related subjects. As a former private tutor, I'm adept at academic support. I'm also pet-friendly, with a sweet cat, and open to short-term recurring jobs. Let's discuss how I can be a great fit for your family.

Competent, Trustworthy, Caring! Leidy joined our family as a full-time nanny to care for our 4 month old. She is very skilled and genuinely cares about our baby’s well being. Leidy recognizes the importance of early childhood development and holds herself to providing a high standard of care. Her recommendations (on sleep set up and toys/activities) and observations (about feeding and development) for our baby were spot on. She quickly learned to recognize our baby’s sleep/hunger cues and would aim to anticipate our baby’s needs throughout the day (prepping a bottle or getting ready for a nap 10-15 mins before our baby would want to eat/sleep). Throughout her time with us, Leidy would support and track key developmental milestones (tummy time, passing toys from one hand to another, etc.). As first time parents, we appreciated her expertise/guidance and liked that Leidy heeded our preferences as well. Leidy easily built trust with us as parents and with our baby, who would smile each morning when Leidy arrived. She values clear communication and is very responsive. One thing I really appreciated was that Leidy was very diligent about being attentive and present while with our baby — she was not on her phone when the baby was awake. We were so happy to have found Leidy! While we no longer need full-time support, we look forward to using Leidy in the future as a babysitter.
