Experience: 20 yrs
My name is Leni , and I have over 20 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and positive environment where children can learn and grow. I am patient, dependable, caring, and hardworking, and I truly enjoy supporting families. Most recently, I worked for a family in Virginia where both parents were attorneys. I cared for their twin children for 6 years as a live-in nanny. During that time, the mother became seriously ill, and the family relocated to Florida for treatment. I continued caring for the twins and supporting the family through that difficult time. I have experience with daily routines, meal prep, homework help, educational activities, transportation, bedtime routines, and light housekeeping. Families describe me as trustworthy, organized, empathetic, and attentive.
It is hard to put into words just how special Leni is. After spending the last several years caring for a wonderful family whose children are now growing older, she is looking for her next family — and any home lucky enough to have her will be incredibly blessed. To say she is “heaven sent” would not be an exaggeration. She has been so much more than a caregiver to the children she has raised — she has loved them deeply, nurtured them, protected them, and cared for them as if they were her own. You can see it so clearly in every interaction: the warmth, patience, attentiveness, and genuine love she brings to her role. She has an incredible instinct for making sure children are cared for properly, thoughtfully, and safely, always tending to their needs with kindness and responsibility. I have also personally seen this firsthand with my own son, who is a close friend of the children she cares for. She has always been so warm, kind, cautious, respectful, and responsible with him as well. She is the type of person who naturally makes children feel safe, loved, and cared for — and parents feel completely at ease. Quite honestly, if I could have her come live with and help raise my own family, I would in a heartbeat. She is truly exceptional and would be an incredible addition to any home fortunate enough to have her. I recommend her wholeheartedly and without hesitation.
