Experience: 8 yrs
Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. Over the past eigth years, I have dedicated myself to fostering development in children aged newborn to 11. My approach is patient, calm, and highly creative, ensuring every child feels supported and inspired. I am comfortable caring for two children at a time and hold both CPR training and First Aid certifications. Whether we are playing outdoor sports, solving puzzles, or engaging in educational games, I strive to make a positive impact every day. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules and prioritize your preferred communication method for daily updates. Having my own car allows me to be reliable and punctual for your family's needs. I look forward to the possibility of bringing my energy and dedication into your home to help your little ones thrive.
Over the last six months, Valentina has positively impacted our family and enriched the life of our 16-month-old son beyond our expectations. Reliable, punctual, communicative, open-hearted, and deeply caring, she has been an absolute pleasure to have in our home and work with each day. Valentina is observant, kind, easygoing, nurturing, and joyful —everything you could hope for in a nanny. She is experienced and incredibly skilled at guiding children through different developmental phases, while remaining flexible and responsive to changing needs and schedules. Beyond the wonderful care she gave our son, she was always willing to lend a hand around our home, helping us stay on top of laundry, tidying, and meal preparation, which was invaluable to our family. During her time with us, she taught our son so many new sounds, signs, and words, while also being deeply attuned to his emotional needs and always meeting him with warmth, patience, and care. We are so sad that our time together is coming to an end simply because our families are moving farther apart. We will always look back on Valentina's time with our son as some of the happiest and most secure months for our family. If you're considering working with Valentina, you've truly found a gem. She is an incredible person, a gifted caregiver, and an invaluable resource for any family lucky enough to have her. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
