Hi! I am a current parent to a 22 & 16-year-old and a full time nanny. I've taken care of children ranging from newborns to elementary/middle schoolers, from various families and environments. I am fluent in Armenian, Russian and English, and am skilled in math. I worked as an accountant for over 10 years, but have shifted my career focus over to health, holistic living, and working with kids. As such, I have a broad knowledge of nutrition, I am a holistic health coach, and I am experienced with multiple kinds of specialty diets. I also understand the importance of outdoor and mind engaging activities and forming emotional bonds rather than just using screens, so if this sounds like an opportunity you're interested in for your child, please let me know!

Margarita is the kind of person who arrives on time every day and treats your time as valuable.  She has a calm presence that I think children who need a steady quiet atmosphere often need. She responds well to clear and up front communication about how you wish your child’s day to flow and changes you would like to implement. She knows how difficult it is to be a first time mom navigating new challenges every week. I would be happy to be a reference for any family thinking of hiring her. 

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Margarita! She cared for our 6-month-old daughter with so much love, patience, and attentiveness. As a first-time mom, I really appreciated her calm, supportive presence — and she always had helpful advice when I needed it. She’s incredibly reliable, flexible, and easy to work with, which gave me such peace of mind. Our daughter absolutely loved spending time with her, especially going on walks and being outside. We feel so lucky to have had her care for our little one!

Margarita cared for our son from age 6 months to 18 months, and we were fortunate to have her with us for a full year. She was incredibly dependable—always on time, rarely missed a day, and was flexible when our work hours shifted unexpectedly.
One of Margarita’s greatest strengths is her focus on encouraging healthy habits and routines. She made sure our son had plenty of outdoor time, whether through play or stroller walks, and she supported healthy eating. We also appreciated the daily log she kept, which kept us informed of nap times, meals, and general updates from the day.
Our son was happy and well cared for in her presence, and we felt fully confident in her ability to support his development. We would gladly recommend Margarita to other families looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and health-conscious caregiver.

Margarita has been with our family for about six months now and she has been such a blessing to us. We are so lucky to have found her! Our son is almost two years old and he loves his time with Margarita so much. She teaches him, plays with him, and does so many fun activities with him. They bake together, go on walks, play at the park, or go to the library nearly every day. Most importantly, I know my son is safe with her and in the hands of a responsible, caring person. When it's time for Margarita to go home at the end of the day, our son hugs her, blows kisses and waves to her from the window as she's getting into her car.  They have a special bond. Margarita is always punctual, communicates well and is so helpful to us (two parents who work demanding jobs). Thank you, Margarita!

With this being our first child (and my husband being former law enforcement) figuring out child care was very challenging for us. Thankfully we found Margarita! She is on time and communicates well about scheduling, even being beyond accommodating to us and our schedule. She truly cares for our son and is excited to see him and watch him grow. We love that she goes on walks (weather permitting), plays with him and never utilizes the television. We couldn't ask for a better person to be with our child while we have to be at work. Kind, caring, attentive, understanding, dependable, truly everything a parent would look for and more!

Margarita has been a blessing to our family. Kind, patient, and focused always on what is best for the child. She works with our son regularly from a developmental standpoint, and ensures he is sleeping well, eating very healthy, and playing outside as much as possible. We consider her an integral part of our family, and our son most importantly, loves her.

My daughter kept asking for her after she left. She's very dependable and trustworthy.

Margarita is very pleasant, punctual and responsible. We really enjoy having her as our nanny. She is great with our 3 year old. She is also an amazing baker and they often do cooking projects together. Highly recommend!

She was great with our 2 1/2 year old and 8 month old. She would read to them, play with them, teach them things and was always reliable.

I have know Margarita and her family for more than ten years. She is a wonderful mother, wife and friend too. She cooks and bakes the healthiest food in the world. She is creative in anything she does. Her patience is as deep as the ocean, her love for people is unlimited. Her knowledge about well being and nutrition is so vast that she can help anybody with any problem. You have to only ask. Her faith is unshakable,and it is the depth of her faith that moves her day by day.

She is really caring and responsible person I have ever met.

If you are looking for an exceptional Nanny to work with your child with a disability or without, Margarita is the perfect person. She is kind,consistent, creative, and most important caring treating your child as her own and working with them on any skill development necessary.  I have worked with Margarita as the care provider for a child with autism that I tutor biweekly, any and all suggestions I have made she has implemented with 100% fidelity. She is the BEST care provider available!

I had Margarita as a nanny full time for my son from 9 months to 16 months and we absolutely loved her. She's amazing with kids, my son had the best sleeping/feeding schedule with her. She's very punctual, super neat and very reliable, she also speaks Russian which was great for us since I want the kids to learn it as well. 
I would highly recommend Margarita as both full time and part time nanny or a wonderful babysitter.

Margarita took care of our son for over 2 years. She is a very reliable person, always on top of everything. We have a very hectic schedule, and she manages all of his after school activities too. Our son loves her so much, they have such a nice relationship, we would keep her forever, but unlucky for us, she is moving to another state with her family. On top of everything, she is a big advocate for healthy food, she knows the best recipes for everything, you can it whatever you want, but once she takes over, be sure there is no unhealthy food for your child:))))
