Hi there! I'm Yaira - a warm, open-minded, and patient caregiver with a heart full of love for children. I'm 23 years old, proudly Colombian, and fluent in both English and Spanish. With over 2, 000 hours of hands-on childcare experience, I've cared for children of all ages and always approach my work with empathy, responsibility, and joy. Before becoming an au pair, I spent a year volunteering at a daycare, where I discovered my passion for supporting little ones. I'm CPR certified, a strong swimmer, and hold a degree in Social Communication, which has strengthened my ability to connect meaningfully with kids and parents. I believe in respectful, loving, and mindful parenting, and I bring that philosophy into every home I work with. I'm also a non-smoker and do not drink alcohol. If you're looking for someone reliable, kind-hearted, and truly passionate about nurturing your child's development, I'd love to connect. Let's chat and see if we're a great fit!
Yaira is with us 3-4 days a week, and we would warmly recommend her to other families as well! First, and most importantly, she is great with our 18 month old. Our daughter is a sensitive child, so it was important for us to find someone who understood how her personality. I have been so impressed by Yaira's approach, and how quickly my daughter got accustomed to her. It's also obvious to us that her learning and development has accelerated since Yaira started watching her. She ensures that the day is filled with a combination of reading, playing, outdoor time and creative activities. Secondly, she is a great help to us as parents. She has easily taken any instruction we've given, she is solution oriented, and always curious how she can be more helpful. Also, despite play and fun, the house is always spotless.
