Hi! My name is Shamfa, I am a Jamaican nanny and I come with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I come from a big family and learned early on the importance of kindness, respect, and responsibility. As a nanny, I have worked with newborns, toddlers, and teenagers. I'm comfortable with everything from diaper changes to helping with homework. My primary goal is to make sure your child is safe and happy while you're away. I love spending time outside, playing games, and doing arts and crafts. I am always looking for fun and educational activities to do with the children in my care. I'm certified in CPR and First Aid, and I have experience working with children who have special needs. I'm patient, kind, and attentive, and I will make sure your child gets the care and attention they deserve. I'm also willing to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and errands.

I am writing to highly recommend Shamfa as a nanny for your family. Shamfa served as our nanny during the summer months, and she provided excellent care for our newborn baby. She was also an invaluable source of support for me during my postpartum. Shamfa was always punctual and reliable, and she took her responsibilities very seriously. She provided a safe and nurturing environment for our baby, and she was very attentive to his needs. She was knowledgeable about his developmental stages and provided age-appropriate activities that were both fun and educational. What sets Shamfa apart from other nannies is her compassion and understanding. When I was struggling with postpartum , she provided me with emotional support and practical assistance that made a significant difference in my recovery. She was always available to listen and offer advice, and her empathy and kindness were truly appreciated. Moreover, Shamfa was proactive in identifying our family's needs and responding to them accordingly. She was organized and efficient, and she was able to manage multiple tasks simultaneously. She maintained excellent communication with us, keeping us informed about our baby's activities and any concerns she had. Overall, I would highly recommend Shamfa as a nanny for your family. She is an exceptional caregiver who goes above and beyond to provide excellent care for children and support for parents. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require further information.
