Experience: 10 yrs
Hello Families! My name is Ciani, and I'm a 30-year-old Liberian-American nanny with 11 years of experience caring for children ages 2 months to 9 years old. My love for nannying is deeply personal. Growing up, my grandmother came from Liberia to help raise me through childhood, and the patience, attentiveness, and family-centered care she provided continue to influence the way I care for children today. I specialize in newborn, infant, and toddler care, including feeding schedules, nap routines, developmental play, overnights, nanny shares, and caring for multiples. I also have experience supporting children with autism, ADHD, ODD, Down syndrome, and Goldenhar syndrome. I am Infant, Child, and Adult First Aid/CPR certified, have 15 years of driving experience, and am comfortable with pets. My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, dependable environment where children can thrive and parents feel supported. There's much more I'd love to share-please reach out if I seem like a fit!
I reached out for a phone interview to learn more about her experience and childcare background, which I believe is a normal and important part of choosing someone to care for your child. When I asked about her background, her response was, “Did you not read my background?” I found this dismissive and unprofessional. While profiles on Care.com provide information, anyone can write anything online, and I think it’s completely reasonable for a parent to want to hear directly from a caregiver about their experience in their own words. Communication and professionalism matter, especially when trust and childcare are involved, and unfortunately this interaction left a negative impression.
