I come from a large family and have always babysat somebody for as long as I can remember. Have two kids of my own, now grown and am looking forward to share day to day schedules with a beautiful family. I currently work for a family with two small children and enjoy playing, doing crafts as well as helping with day to day tasks. I love to be in the kitchen and always make sure to tidy up when I'm done. Whatever the needs and goals of a family are, I'm happy to help them meet them.

We are very lucky and grateful to have had Lina as our nanny and part of our family. She is incredibly warm, patient, and attentive.  Very experienced, and wonderful with young kids.  She took great care of my kid since he was an infant. I feel like she could understand and respond to his needs in a very gentle, warm and nurturing way. My son loves her and even learned some Spanish words from her. We are very grateful for everything she has done for our family and would recommend her without hesitation!

Lina has been heaven sent 
she has been a part of my daughters life for a few years now.
my daughter loves her.
would definitely re hire her in an instant
great with children, responsible, and trustworthy


I am so fortunate to have found Lina to watch my two-year-old son. She is professional, easy to communicate with and incredibly warm. Lina clearly has an abundance of experience because as soon as she met my son for the first time she immediately engaged with him in a fun, friendly way and even brought age appropriate games and toys to play with. He had no issue whatsoever being left alone with Lina just minutes after meeting her. She texted me a photo during their time together and kept me updated. He must have had a great time with her because after she left he continued to talk about her. I would thoroughly recommend Lina!

Lina has been a true gift to our family. There is no one that we feel more comfortable leaving our 19-month old daughter with. She is wonderful with children, and is extremely helpful with housework when we're exhausted. I would highly recommend Lina to any family looking for assistance.

Lina goes above and beyond. She is so good with our 18 month old son.  I was beyond nervous to leave him at all and knowing she's there makes my night that much more relaxing.  She engages with him and has even brought him books/gifts on holidays.  She's one of the only people who can distract him/play with him enough that he doesn't walk around saying "mama" looking for me ha ha. You won't regret meeting with her and seeing how great she is.

I can't say enough great things about our experience with Lina. We visited the area from out of state for a wedding and hired Lina to watch our 14 month old son at our hotel. She was amazing with him right away, holding him, playing with him and really warming up to him. She texted us multiple pictures throughout the night too! We would hire her again in a heart beat!

Lina is a true gem! She always comes in on time and with a huge smile. She's conscientious, thorough, and respectful. She makes our household run smoothly! We would be lost without her!

Lina was prompt, polite, professional and most importantly, warm and kind with our kids, a wild 2.5 yo and a 8 month old on the hunt to put everything in his mouth. She is an excellent communicator and a calm personality, and there were no tears for our first date night out since they were born! Our two extremely shy and skittish cats even came out from hiding and hung out with her, which shows how wonderfully she fit in with our household. Can't recommend her enough.

Lina is amazing and works for me on the regular. She is always punctual. She is great with my two girls and they love her. It's always hard finding someone you trust especially after just having a baby. She does all the things I want her to do for the baby including tummy time. She makes time to play with my oldest while caring for my 7 month old. And I trust her because of how she interacts with my girls so loving and how the oldest continues to talk about her after she leaves and asks when will she will see Miss Lina again.  What other great things can I say. She speaks Spanish and English to my girls, she always helps to clean up and tidy my home. She feeds and takes care of my dog. I even hired her to help me set up for my daughters birthday party. My girls attend Montessori during the week when I work so I only use her on weekends when I work, but if I didn't have the Montessori I would want her full time, she is amazing she exudes compassion and love towards me and my girls & I'm so grateful to have found her.

We recently located and I would have done everything to take Lina with us! Where to start -- she's like a fairy godmother who enchants and delights children, and our two little girls would wait all week for Lina to come! Lina loves arts and crafts, which is one of my 7 year old's favorite activities, so Lina would come each time with projects and materials ready to go! She always had treats for the girls like hair barrettes, and when she found out my 7 year old was obsessed with Halloween, brought her sticker clings for her room! Additionally, Lina was so sweet - she would cook yummy and healthy soup to bring over for the girls on the days she would come! 
Some things that we love about Lina:
- she genuinely, wholeheartedly LOVES children. She is so patient, caring, and knows how to communicate with them
- Lina is punctual and goes above and beyond to communicate 
Lina is so caring about our whole family - we still keep in touch!

Lina is amazing! Our household would be lost without her magic: 
- kid whisperer: I dreamed of that special person who would make an instant connection with my daughter, make her laugh, and yet convince her to eat her vegetables. Lina just has it! Being with kids does not feel like a job for her. It is a source of energy and happiness
- proactive and thoughtful: Lina is a parenting partner. Some examples: (i) for every holiday, she would arrange my daughter's room with surprise decorations, (ii) Lina would find ways to teach her Spanish words in daily interactions, (iii) at school, Lina is friends with all teachers and support staff and would remind me of what I need to do
- perfection in housekeeping: the house is immaculate, fridge is well stocked, the laundry is miraculously clean and folded. Learning what we like, Lina prepares breakfast for my husband and I every morning and started packing me vegetables (on top of packing snacks for our daughter)
I would highly recommend her!

Lina is wonderful.  She truly enjoys playing with kids and her pure joy shows.  She's also a whiz in the kitchen and keeps everything tidy which is huge after a long day at work.  She is adept at all things that keep a house together and working well.

We also took her on vacation with us which was the best thing we ever did.  We were able to enjoy as well as the kids.  She stepped in wherever necessary and went with the flow at every turn which is essential with two young children.

Now that my kids are older I have a decreased need for her services but still plan to use her on weekends and as needed in between.  

I wholeheartedly recommend Lina, and any family who gets her will be very lucky.
