About Erika

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi! My name is Erika, and I've lived in Miami all my life. I'm fluent in English and Spanish, with over six years of experience as a swim instructor and Five years as a career nanny, caring for children from newborns to preteens. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, and I have my own reliable car. I'm passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children. Whether it's outdoor play, educational activities, or swimming, I aim to make each day enriching. I also assist with light housekeeping, meal prep, carpooling, and pet care-I'm a pet lover, so animals are never an issue. I believe in open communication with parents and enjoy building strong, supportive relationships with families. After completing a year-long role with a wonderful family, I'm looking for a new family to connect with and grow alongside. I'm excited to continue learning about children's development and providing the best care possible, while making lasting memories with your family.

Erika is truly one of the sweetest and genuine caregivers. She is incredibly gentle, patient, loving, attentive, and very trustworthy. She started with us when our daughter was a bit over three months old. She has a natural ability to soothe babies, get them to sleep, bottle feed, and make them feel safe and comfortable. She is currently training to become a Newborn Care Specialist as well. Erika is also incredibly creative and an amazing artist. She loves drawing and doing art with kids, making time with her fun and engaging. She also has a very strong swimming background and can help teach children how to swim. Most importantly, she loves children, and we have always felt our daughter was safe and loved in her care.
