Experience: 3 yrs
Nurturing the growth and development of children is my true passion. With three years of experience caring for children ages newborn to 11, I strive to make a positive impact on every family I support. My approach is patient, calm, and highly creative, ensuring your little ones feel both safe and inspired. I hold CPR Training and have completed Early Child Development Coursework to provide the best possible care. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules while engaging children through outdoor sports, educational games, and puzzles. Whether I am preparing healthy meals, assisting with carpooling, or providing swimming supervision, I remain dedicated to your family's needs. I prioritize your preferred communication style, providing regular updates to keep you informed throughout the day. I look forward to the possibility of becoming a trusted, reliable partner in your children's daily lives.
There are very few people you come across in life who genuinely leave you feeling at peace when your children are in their care, and Yani is absolutely one of those people. From the very beginning, she showed not only professionalism and reliability, but an extraordinary level of warmth, patience, and character that is honestly difficult to put into words. Watching the way she interacted with B and S made it immediately clear that caring for children is not something she simply “does” — it’s something that comes naturally to her at a deeply compassionate level. B can be very energetic and sometimes difficult to settle when he gets overstimulated, yet Yani always approached him with calmness, understanding, and remarkable patience. Instead of becoming frustrated, she would redirect his energy in thoughtful ways and somehow turn difficult moments into positive ones. It genuinely impressed me how intuitive she was with him. With S, Yani showed the same attentiveness and kindness. There was one evening S was especially emotional and clingy after a long day, and Yani handled it with such tenderness that even I was taken back by it. She sat with her patiently, comforted her, and made her feel completely safe and understood. That level of emotional presence is something you cannot teach someone — it speaks directly to the kind of person they are. What stands out most about Yani is her character. She is dependable, honest, attentive, and incredibly mature. She communicates well, pays attention to the little details, and treats children with genuine respect and care. It never felt like she was just “watching” B and S; it felt like she truly cared about their wellbeing, happiness, and emotional comfort. As a parent, that means more than I can properly express. It is rare to find someone you trust wholeheartedly around your children, but Yani earned that trust naturally through her actions, consistency, and the sincerity she brings into everything she does. I can confidently say that any family would be fortunate to have her caring for their children. She has been an absolute blessing to ours.
